LEAD Program Summary: The UW-Stevens Point LEAD Program was first implemented on the UWSP campus in the 2021-2022 school year and is completely FREE to eligible students. LEAD is designed to increase first-year undergraduate and first-generation college students’ sense of belonging at UWSP before the school year even begins. The program kicks off with a summer bridge week in August one week prior to classes and continues throughout the entire first year on campus, by providing students with ongoing resources, peer mentoring, programming, and professional support opportunities. The program is aimed at providing a supportive community that promotes student success by getting first-year undergraduate students ahead and ready to start their college careers. It focuses on campus resources, transitioning into college, student success skills, social and enrichment activities, and the development of future campus leaders. 

 

SET Department Mission: The Office of Student Experience and Transformation (SET) aims to provide support to pre-college and college students who need help with their transition to the UWSP campus community. SET serves as a welcoming campus resource that provides academically and culturally integrated transformative experiences. SET empowers student development, connects first-generation students, and celebrates all students’ lived experiences and campus communities. 

 

SET Department Vision: To foster transformative learning through integrated, holistic, and human-centered community experiences.
