The Learning Center

Our Mission and Vision

The mission of the Learning Center is to help students develop and enhance their academic skills and abilities through cultivating effective learning practices as well as to build their leadership skills through high-impact leadership and engagement opportunities. We support investment in learning and studying and respect individual learning styles. We strive to foster an environment conducive to collaborative learning, where trained student leaders serve as role models. With the goal of creating lifelong learners, we strive to support students' endeavors toward self-confidence and higher academic achievement and performance.

The vision of The Learning Center is to empower students to achieve their academic and personal goals via opportunities for enhanced learning, interpersonal development, personal responsibility, and leadership. Our three core functions are: (1) to provide course-specific academic support, (2) to provide academic skills development initiatives, and (3) to provide high-impact leadership and engagement opportunities.
