This course supports transfer students in their transition to UCSB through a CALM framework: Community, Action, Leadership, and Mentorship. Students research a campus or community concern and share findings through collaborative presentations. They explore campus organizations that inspire action and connect involvement to local and global issues. The course also introduces leadership opportunities, emphasizing emotional intelligence and communication skills. Finally, students examine the role of mentorship in academic success and career development. Through reflection and guided activities, students build belonging, confidence, and a personalized plan for engagement at UCSB.

LING12 . Westmacott B 3 Months Ago

Her feedback and grading of your papers are literally from ChatGPT. I learned nothing from this class. She doesn't teach and claims it's the "most scientific method according to research."

LING8 . Westmacott B 1 Year, 9 Months Ago

She was one of my favorite teachers! Her class was truly inspiring and helpful. She always prepared interesting group projects and innovative ways of improving public speaking for non-native speakers. I learned a lot about speaking confidently and being able to convey a message thanks to her course materials. I would definitely recommend her class!
