  Freshman Workshop Leader

  Workshop Leaders are responsible for assisting first-year students in their adjustment to life on the Bluff by teaching a 10-week class, beginning during Orientation and ending the week after Fall Break. Workshop Leaders work with a professor whose intro class is connected to the workshop class to discuss concerns, reinforce learning, and share student updates. Workshop lesson topics cover a broad range of issues relevant to not only transitioning to life at the University of Portland but also to becoming a successful student; they include time management, campus resources, stress management, reading textbooks, taking notes, studying for math and science, taking tests, active learning, goal setting, wellness, choosing a major, and registration. Workshop Leaders are also required to attend Building Community: Serving to Learn over Labor Day weekend, and are responsible for taking students on Portland’s public transportation system for one lesson to get them acquainted to exploring our city. Workshop Leaders are mentors for incoming students and may be the first person to whom freshman will confide in with academic, personal, or transition issues. Show less
