Chynna!
What's the latest news from the PCCs regarding that workshop/collective with College Counselors? J
Also, David Maldonado has some ideas regarding the referral system. Below are his ideas. Please review it with the other PCCs and let me know what you think.
If you're all interested in this, it would most likely be a summer project.
I look forward to hearing your thoughts!
Pia

Subject: CAC/SRC Referral
The basic idea I am proposing is that there should be a focused methodology for dismissed students (and students who successfully appeal) who are referred by the Dismissal Appeals Committee to the SRC projects.
This focused methodology would address the most immediate academic issues and concerns of dismissed students through the best practices of the SRC methodology.
What comes to mind are two practices promoted by the SRC methodology that seem most relevant to urgent academic situations: office hours and study groups.
Given decreasing access to tutorial/peer learning, students may have to rely more and more upon these kinds of study strategies.
This focused methodology could take place over 2-4 one-on-one sessions between the student and an SRC PC. In these sessions, the student would be instructed through what could be considered a one-on-one, interactive workshop that gets students to assess their academic/study strategies, and perhaps more importantly, to develop a plan of action which incorporates office hour use and study groups as a foundation for their academic success and empowerment.
How this is all relevant to the CAC/SRC referral system is that I am sure the Appeals Committee and College counselors in general will be far more confident in making referrals if they had literature to give to students that explains the 1-2-3 steps, so to speak, of what are the specific and practical discussions that will take place in the one-on-one sessions that directly address the student's academic needs.
The problem now is that either College counselors do not understand SRC project methodology, or only vaguely understand it. In either case, I believe these pose the greatest obstacles to regular referrals.
A focused methodology will help to streamline what they need to know while assuring them that the SRC will address issues that absolutely need to be addressed, and that it will done in a way that no one else on campus can.
I'd be happy to work with the SRC to develop such a focused methodology. We could meet beginning this quarter to get it off the ground and continue our discussions through the summer.
