Lake Superior College will hold its Student Success Day for the Spring Semester on Tuesday, February 25 from 8:30 a.m.-4 p.m. on its main campus.

The conference style signature event takes place once each semester and offers a wide range of sessions and activities designed to foster academic, personal, and professional growth in every aspect of their college journey. There are no classes held from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. on Student Success Day. Sessions are held in-person and online.

LSC faculty and staff will team up with community partners from Essentia Health, LeadMN, Army National Guard, North Shore Health, and more to offer engaging and informative sessions. Tuesday’s event will also feature “main stage” sessions taking place in The Commons, including a few sessions by LeadMN focusing on advocacy and self-care, an afternoon session from Essentia Health on communication methods and a performance by the 13-member Blue Water Big Band from 11 a.m.-Noon.

Also new for this event, LSC students will have a chance to win prizes by engaging in events throughout the day by collecting a Bingo Card at the start of the day and then marking off activities throughout the day like attending sessions and engaging with vendors at information tables. The LSC Student Senate will hold a Success Fest at the end of the day filled with games and more chances to win prizes.

Break-out session topics include available student resources, health and wellness, post-graduation options, study abroad opportunities, and a session looking at the inside perspective of the criminal justice system.

Other popular long-standing activities will include a clothing swap, a winter hike and a ping-pong tournament. As students enjoy a free lunch, there will be a performance by the LSC Choir.

This college-wide tradition started in 2008 and is held in both the fall and spring semesters.
