Students recieved tutoring in all academic subjects and participated in a goal setting (10th and 11th graders) or college planning (12th graders) workshop. They also ate lunch at the newly renovated Furman Dining Hall! Students also enjoyed spending time with each other, the counselors, and faculty.
15 Furman students volunteered at Tutors. The majority of those tutors are Teacher Fellows at Furman University. Thank you Teacher Fellows! Another important group of volunteers were the Bridges 2006 Summer Counselors. 11 of the 12 counselors will assist with Saturday College throughout the year. The counselors were there all day Saturday serving as tutors, coordinators, and activity specialists! Thank You! Bridges Faculty are also involved with Saturday College as tutors and supporters. Many thanks to Mr. Choplin, Miss Turza, Mr. Martin, Mrs. King, and Mr. and Mrs. Grills!
Saturday College is being coordinated by Casey Crisp. Casey is a Bridges graduate, Furman student, and served as a Bridges counselor in 2006. She did a great job planning the first Saturday College!
Here are pictures from our first Saturday College!
