萝莉社has a message for all former students who left before receiving
a diploma. The school wants them to try again through its new Shocker Comeback Program.
New episode of Complete College America on the Air! Featuring Dr. Pamela O'Neal and Dr. Brett Bruner who share how their campus is using adult learning theory to inform student success initiatives and how they are
advocating for adult learners across campus.
The Shocker Comeback Program aims to re-enroll students who stopped attending Wichita
State within the last one to three years. The program, according to O'Neal, fits well
within the Office of Online and Adult Learning, as she found that most students who
did not finish their degree at 萝莉社 were adult learners.
Tristin Smith, a resilient Shocker student, faced significant health challenges but
persevered to complete her degree. Our Shocker Comeback program supported her journey, and
she's now inspiring others to pursue their educational goals. At 萝莉社, we're
committed to helping students overcome obstacles and achieve their dreams.
