Season five of Penn College’s “Tomorrow Makers” podcast kicked off recently with Kaysey Beury, coordinator of student success solutions in the college’s Michael J. Hudock Sr. Center for Academic Excellence.
This conversation, “First-Generation Student Success,” is for all those who want to know more about the support systems available to Penn College students.
“I tell students that it’s my job to help them find solutions to any challenges they're facing that could impede their progress,” explained Beury, a former ninth-grade English teacher. That might include helping students navigate time management challenges, showing them to the Tutoring Center, or connecting them with other campus support systems.
In this inspiring discussion, Beury shares her own higher education journey and how it fuels her commitment to helping Penn College students succeed.
Students are capable and resilient, she recognizes, but, she adds: “They don’t have to do it alone. There are lots of people here to support them along the way.”
Beury and her colleagues in the Michael J. Hudock Sr. Center for Academic Excellence are ready with resources.
