New students toured the Student Success Center during orientation in August. The public can tour the newly renovated space during the grand opening on Sept. 18.

The ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø will host a grand opening for its new Student Success Center on the sixth floor of the Rasmuson Library on Wednesday, Sept. 18. The event is free and open to the public.

Attendees can drop in anytime between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. The day will include activities and giveaways. A ribbon-cutting ceremony is scheduled for 2:30 p.m., followed by refreshments and guided tours of the facility from 3 to 5 p.m.

The newly renovated space brings under one roof all of the major services that help students stay in school and get their degrees: academic tutoring and coaching, career advising and testing services. The modern, inviting environment is designed to facilitate collaboration and private study and includes a family room and mother's room.

More information about the center is located on the Student Success website.
