Program Status: Assessment
The purpose of this project is to redesign Portland State University’s three-term course First-Year Inquiry (FRINQ) to embed supportive services and student success measures directly in the curriculum. Our goals are to create a FRINQ curriculum where every student knows what support is available on campus by embedding advising, registration, financial aid, career readiness, wellness, belonging, etc., into the curriculum, to use FRINQ as a site where students can meet and build relationships with academic professionals from across campus who are ready to assist them, and to develop proactive processes for identifying and supporting students who are at risk of not passing or completing FRINQ.
