What is SU Cares?
SU Cares is our ethos for serving and supporting students from pre-enrollment to beginning. Students are our act 1 precedence and we want all our Sea Gulls to feel welcome, appreciated, and supported through commencement. At SU, a scholar is never alone when struggling with a demanding situation .
SU Cares works with students and university, family, and community partners to create an environment where every Sea Gull can achieve maximum electric potential. specifically, SU Cares is besides :
- a principled strategy for promoting coordinated and holistic approaches to supporting students developmentally and
- an approach to enhancing collaborations between institutional colleagues and student affairs practitioners/educators to support student success.
SU Cares is not a platform that students join. SU Cares is who we are as an institution.
