As the Fall Term picks up speed, many students begin to feel the weight of academic and personal responsibilities. Whether you’re navigating your first year or returning with new goals, October is the perfect time to pause, reflect, and recharge with the support of UM’s Academic Learning Centre (ALC) and campus-wide resources.
Dr. Monique Dumontet, Director of the ALC, shares her excitement on the month ahead.
“Student Success Month is a celebration of learning, growth, and community. We’re thrilled to offer workshops and events that empower students to take charge of their academic journey and well-being,” she says. “We want every student to feel confident and supported.”
Throughout October, students can attend in-person and online workshops on topics such as:
- Academic writing and study strategies
- Research skills and library services
- Coping with stress and building resilience
- Career planning and professional development
- Navigating transitions and building community
