Building the Esprit de Corps: Clubs, Activities, Cohorts, Learning Communities
Like every week on Let's Talk Ed, we delve into the much-needed transformation of colleges to better support non-traditional students. We, Zahi Atallah and Chris Forde, along with special guest @Eric Painter, a US Army veteran turned community college professor, explore innovative strategies for enhancing the college experience, retention and success.
In Segment 1: "Non-Traditional: A US Army Veteran's Journey to Becoming a Community College Professor”, we talk about the quintessential importance of class scheduling in allowing non-traditional student to attend and succeed in college. A schedule could be the reason why potential students don’t go to college, or drop out of college, or simply don’t succeed. A schedule is not just what is convenient for us as staff and faculty. It is a path to success in itself. Eric Painter shares his perspective as a veteran journeying from military service to academia, highlighting the unique challenges and triumphs faced by non-traditional students pursuing higher education.
Segment 2: "Building the Esprit de Corps: Clubs, Activities, Cohorts, Learning Communities” tackles the importance of fostering a sense of belonging and community through clubs, activities, cohorts, and learning communities, creating a supportive environment for students of all backgrounds. Neglecting these essential success builders is a common college administration decision that hurts students, and ultimately the college.
And, finally, in Segment 3: "A Hero's Perspective: If US Army Veteran Had the Magic Wand to Change College”, we arm Eric Painter with omnipotent powers and seek his perspective on transforming community colleges to better meet the needs of non-traditional students, offering valuable recommendations for positive change.
Help us to empower learners by creating inclusive and student-centered community college environments! Join the Education Revolution!!!!!!

St. Marys’ College celebrates excellent A Level results! ✨
Students and staff at St. Mary’s College are celebrating another excellent set of A Level results this summer.
Continuing the high standards of previous years the ‘class of 2024’ saw an impressive 40 per cent of St. Mary’s students achieving three or more A*, A or B grades, up from 30 per cent last year.
Overall a third of all A Level passes (34 per cent) were at the highest A*/A grades, and almost two thirds (64 per cent) were A*, A or B grades.
This year’s candidates also included a significant proportion of ‘straight A’ students with a fifth of the cohort (20 per cent) achieving three or more A* or A grades, another increase on last year.
