Hello Advisors! Back to school is approaching us quickly, we have had our virtual RAM on July 28th for those who selected this option. This year, flexibility is key and this includes the format and options for our meetings. I will accommodate as best as I can and in the most preferred format (in person or online). All RAMs will include a $50 stipend, a mileage reimbursement if in person, meals for the day if in person, and STEM goodies/supplies for all. We will be doing an overview of our upcoming year events for both the fall and spring semesters, signing up for site visits, kick-off events, and many other things. Finally, we will be learning about MESA Day and MESA USA themes to help us guide the work we complete this school year and to ensure all programs are supported in meeting performance watch criteria.
An agenda will be mailed out on August 5th, 2021 for our RAM in person on August 19th, 2021; 8:00 AM-3:00 PM in Las Vegas, NM at our NMHU MESA Office.
