Join the W2R Learning Community!
Wolves to Rams (W2R) is a program to help make your transition from Front Range Community College to Colorado State University informed and low-stress. The W2R Learning Community (LC) is a great way to connect with staff and faculty in your major, learn about opportunities for research & internships and prepare yourself for participation in those practical experiences, delve into the awesome resources CSU offers, and meet other W2R students.

If you join the W2R LC, you will be a part of a FRCC-sized community (less than 20) to navigate your first year at CSU with.

The W2R LC seeks people to join the community who are driven, excited about science, technology, engineering, and/or math (STEM) and open to new social and academic opportunities.

What we'll offer:
- A 1-credit upper-division seminar course called "Becoming a Scientist" in which you'll learn about how research works as a student and as a career path, skills, tools & support for getting into a research lab by the following semester. (IU 300 - offered once a week on Tuesday or Wednesday from 3:30-4:45)
- Training on research ethics, diversity in STEM, presentation skills, networking and how to get into a practical lab experience or internship by the following semester.
- Intentional connections to your classmates and your department as CSU
- Seminars on relevant topics such as post-college careers, graduate school, how to study more effectively, free resources at CSU, and academic planning toward graduation with your bachelor's degree
- Peer mentoring by students who have been in your very shoes in the past.
- Customized academic, career, and personal support by W2R staff and faculty
- A chance to interact with other students in STEM who come from diverse backgrounds and have unique experiences.

What we expect from you:
- Regular attendance in the weekly seminar and your other classes
- Regular (weekly) interaction with your W2R peer mentors, staff, and faculty
- Willingness to seek help when you need it
- A good attitude and a commitment to your studies and CSU experience
- A desire to learn about careers and life in science and about people & perspectives that are different from your own.
