Second Year Experience
A lot of attention and resources are given to first year students, and then they suddenly find themselves on their own their second year. The SYE is designed to ease that shift. Second year students already know how to navigate Western, so the SYE focuses on providing direction in personal, academic and career related matters. The French Hall staff is specifically trained to work with upper-level students.
