LEAD 050 - Introduction to Oberlin Life and Learning

1 credit
This course intends to build upon advising during first-year orientation and capitalize on the student cohort advising experience. The course is designed to assist students as they: (a) acclimate to college learning, (b) use institutional resources for holistic support, (c) navigate college life, and (d) create an educational pathway that connects past and present curricular and co-curricular experiences to goals for their future. Information offered and discussed in an informal seminar setting during the course includes: understanding academic advising as an educational activity; training in technologies for holistic advising; planning a coherent curricular and co-curricular pathway from high school through college; understanding norms for academic and interpersonal integrity in our community of learning; and training in study skills, time management, and wellness.
