Success Happens Here

Tutoring will be back in the residence halls this fall! Starting Monday 8/25, tutors will be available in multiple halls across campus for appointments, drop-ins, and Study Halls. The full schedule will be available in Penji once fall semester begins. The best part? Residence hall tutoring is open to anyone in the supported courses! Since the tutors are in open-access classrooms, you don't need to live in the hall to get help. Learn more about tutoring in our link in bio! #StudentsHelpingStudents #UARK #SuccessHappensHere

CORD Employee Spotlight 🌟 meet Riley Barry, Assistant Director of the Career Studio! How long have you worked at the CORD? "A little over a year" Favorite class you've ever taken & why? "As an undergrad student I took a class on adaptive sports. It was a great opportunity to learn and get to experience first hand new sports and how they have been adapted to different disabilities. I really enjoyed learning more about the rules of the games so I can better follow along with sporting events like the Paralympics." What is your best advice for students? "Get out of your comfort zone and take advantage of new opportunities. College is a unique time where there are so many ways to get involved or try something you have no previous knowledge or experience in. This is a great way to learn about yourself and what you are passionate about." What is your favorite spot on campus? "My office in the CORD has a great view of Old Main and I get to hear the the alma mater play everyday as I leave the office." How does your work support students? "At the Career Studio, we have a team of peer mentors who help students with the resumes, cover letters, mock interviews, job search and much more! I oversee this team and make sure they have the best training and information available to work with students on their careers!" What do you like best about working at the CORD? "The CORD is such a cool spot full of great resources for students. I love that students can hang out at the CORD, get food, and take advantage of so many different programs all in one place. The CORD is always busy which brings such great energy to my day!" #UARK #SuccessHappensHere
