Title III

Academic Advising

Opportunity: "Bridging the gap between students, faculty & staff, and effective academic advising"

Strategy: The implementation of Web for Faculty and Advisors© and Web for Students©* is intended to enhance the current advising system at LSSU. This self-service solution provides faculty, staff and students with secure, virtually anytime-anywhere access to information necessary to manage courses, to advise students, and (for students) to manage and take ownership for their personal accounts and information. The "Web for" products offer 1) easy-to-read and easy-to-navigate screens that do not require knowledge of special codes; 2) up-to-date teaching and student schedules, as well as course information; 3) easy-to-access student contact information, degree audits, transcripts; 4) online grading, registration, billing and more.

*Funding for the implementation of Web for Students© was partially supported by Title III.
