Nontrad groups and pages March 08

Here are some fun pages to explore from different colleges this week.

Nontraditional Student
Information Pages March 08

Georgia - Reinhardt College in Waleska, Georgia has a nice web page that welcomes nontraditional students. These kinds of pages are becoming the norm, even in schools that don't have a Nontraditional Student Group yet. Reinhardt's Resource Guide describes a Commuter Lounge and educational workshops, among other links.

Minnesota - Ridgewater College (2 campuses - in Willmar and Hutchinson) has a page that features a "connections" program. This program features networking, seminars, events, and activities for non-traditional students. There are two people listed that students can contact. You can also watch a movie called Nontraditional Careers for women on the page. Links here include Child Care, Housing, and more.

Texas - Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas has a Nontraditional Student Group called the NTSO. They have a great website featuring photos,

The University also has a great information page for Nontraditional students on the site.

Wyoming - The University of Wyoming at Laramie has a page for its Non-Traditional Student Council. This description is from their website:

NTSC is a volunteer student organization that works to insure non-traditional students achieve success at the University of Wyoming.

The group meets weekly, and also helps each other during finals. They also have formed interest groups for veterans, a dinner group, people who like theater, and more. What a great idea!
