First-Year Experience
WHAT'S UP NCC?
Engage! Enrich! Empower!
At Nassau, it's all about community: connecting with classmates, professors, clubs, sports, campus services, and other resources that will enrich your college experience. NCC's First-Year Experience (FYE) program is one of the best places to make those connections.
(FYE) Day of Service
Looking for a way to touch the world (and maybe make it a little better)? Join members of the NCC campus community for the First Year Experience program's Day of Service. There will be more than forty service projects taking place on the Nassau campus that day--everything from food and clothing drives to fund raisers, charitable auctions, environmental activities, and campus beautification projects. It's a great opportunity to do something important for others.
Common Reading: Dear Freedom Writer
The students of today tell their stories of adversity and growth in letters to the original Freedom Writers-authors of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Freedom Writers Diary-who write supportive and powerful letters in response. Over twenty years ago, the students in first-year teacher Erin Gruwell's high school class in Long Beach, California, were labeled "unteachable"-but she saw past that. Instead of treating them as scores on a test, she understood that each of them had a unique story to tell.
Conversations About College - Workshop Series
A new school, a new routine, new friends, new freedom, new choices—college produces tons of changes in students' lives. The First-Year Experience program's Conversations About College workshops offer practical advice about handling these changes and challenges.
Whether it's managing your time effectively, becoming a better test taker, finding the right career, working with your professors, or making smart decisions about alcohol or sex, you'll come away from Conversations workshops with strategies, solutions, and food for thought.
