Students participate in every aspect of the operation and management of the Student Center, and learn valuable skills through the Center's S.T.A.R. Program. The S.T.A.R. Program uses the employment experience as an opportunity for students to develop while serving the campus community. The more than 50 students employed by the Student Center participate in the program which provides them with more than just a paycheck. The S.T.A.R. Program is designed to increase self-confidence and motivation, teach marketable skills, and provide a forum for students to test career options and explore academic interests. Involvement with the S.T.A.R. Program is "experiential" in nature. Its focus is educational, but occurs outside of the standard classroom environment. We believe that such experiences play a crucial role in providing students with an enriched education.
