Student Experience & Success
Identify and build strategies that promote positive and meaningful student engagement experiences and success. Discuss ways to further integrate student support, consider needs of holistic student development, and focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion work.
Statement of Vision for Student Experience & Success
At Cal Poly Humboldt we aspire to create a true student-centered approach to living, growing, and learning on our campus. We believe in the importance of connections to communities (campus, regional, tribal), and that it is imperative our students have a quality education where they engage in intellectual and professional work in and beyond the classroom so they feel connected to their discipline and gain essential academic, job, and life skill that transcend beyond the classroom and into their daily lives. Humboldt students will have the opportunity to thrive, contribute, and feel connected to the many communities in which they interface and explore the social and environmental justice values in which they align. To have a positive and meaningful Humboldt student experience, we will have transparent, accessible systems in place to support their holistic growth and wellbeing. They will be proud to be an Humboldt alumni.
