FLighT (First-Year Learning Team)

Southeast Missouri State Unviersity - MO, Missouri

The Southeast Missouri State University FLighT program consists of a cluster of three courses centered on a particular academic theme or area of interest. These clusters of approximately 25 students are small learning communities that, with the help of a peer mentor, assist in the academic and social transition to college life. Each FLighT is required to complete a service-learning project and is encouraged to attend special topic seminars and trips.

Campus Compact connects the campus with the city formally and informally, which is very useful in a variety of ways, from name recognition for service-learning and the university to developing and funding a new position that will foster relationships between schools, universities, and city offices."
