This is SLC: Our College News

As part of our ongoing commitment to student success, a cross-college committee has been working to develop SLC’s inaugural college-wide Co-Curricular Record (CCR) program. Co-curricular recognition provides a framework for increasing access to student life activities and it directly supports St. Lawrence College’s student enrichment objectives. By recognizing and encouraging student engagement in opportunities beyond the classroom, the CCR will serve as a tool to help students make meaning of their experiences, reflect on learning outcomes, and articulate their professional skill sets.
