TRiO @ Evergreen: Starting Your Journey

The purpose of this TRiO Student Success Class is to provide  eligible students  with the academic support, tools, and resources that promote a successful transition into Evergreen. Over the course of the fall quarter, students will actively participate in seminars, reflection, workshops, and writing that support the process of each student’s academic development in their reading, writing, and communication skills. Students will read, respond to, and have seminar on selected texts that illuminate and deconstruct the critical social justice themes facing TRiO  eligible students . Required readings and writing prompts promote growth in higher order thinking, such as critically responding to texts, analyzing and synthesizing sources of information while applying knowledge to tackle new concepts and ideas presented in their full-time academic programs.  Students will receive two credits in reflective writing for the successful completion of this course.
