The Caring Campus Initiative, developed by the Institute for Evidence-Based Change (IEBC) is designed to create a college environment that increases students’ sense of connectedness and belonging and, in turn, completion of each student’s education goals.

What Can We Do?

• I show I care by making an effort to learn each student's name.
• Create learning communities by having break-out sessions and pair/share activities and discussion boards.
• Making course expectations clear and providing early and clear feedback.
• Connect to each student by learning about their unique interests and goals
• Make myself available to students by responding to emails promptly, accommodating their schedules, and welcoming and encouraging questions, spending time getting to know them.
• Creating a culture of compassion and understanding by listening to each student's situation and helping them to be successful in their career path. 
• I care by encouraging students to bring their full authentic selves to the classroom
• All students belong here because TCC is a warm and caring community that believes everyone should have the opportunity to succeed.
