Bearkats Read to Succeed Program
SHSU's First Year Experience office will begin giving incoming freshmen their first college academic experience before they even set foot in a classroom with the "Bearkats Read to Succeed" program. Through the common reader program, students will be given a copy of a book to read over the summer, which will be integrated into some of the classes they take through lectures, film series, participation in discussion groups and course assignments.
The mission of the Bearkats Read to Succeed program is to create a common academic/intellectual experience for incoming freshmen, facilitate a campus-wide cross-disciplinary conversation, and enhance the community among students, faculty, and staff.
For more information on the Bearkats Read to Succeed program, contact Kay Angrove at 936.294.3422 or kangrove@shsu.edu
