Title: Thinking Critically in College:  What You Need to Know

Most students discover that college is much harder academically than high school was.  You're being asked to think in new and more sophisticated ways, which your professors may not explain clearly.  No matter how well you have done until now, you may need to step up your game.  In this session, you'll learn the keys to studying effectively, thinking in the ways your professors expect, and using your college education to prepare you to think critically for the rest of your life. 

Light snacks provided.
