College of Education undergrads kicked off their semester the right way with a Planner Party to organize their schedules over popcorn and iced tea!
The College of Education recently hosted a Planner Party to provide students with support, supplies, and good company from classmates as they organized their assignments and personal schedules for the semester. With popcorn and iced tea for sustenance, upper class students shared planning tips and tricks with attendees. A wide range of students attended including College of Education Ambassadors and members of Wreck 'Em Teach, the College of Education student organization. Both of these programs promote community within the College of Education and students seeking mentorship opportunities, volunteer events, and further group meet-ups are invited to sign up for Wreck 'Em Teach using this link: https://ttu.campuslabs.com/engage/submitter/form/start/642703
