PORTALES, NEW MEXICO Located on the High Plains of eastern New Mexico, Roosevelt County is in an area Spanish conquistadors called Llano Estacado or Staked Plains. The open grassland provided few landmarks, and it is said the explorers drove stakes to avoid being swallowed up by the vastness. At an elevation of slightly more than 4,000 feet above sea level, with mild winters and low humidity, the area has a lot to offer visitors and new residents alike.

the accomplishments of Cannon's Air Commandos, who continually serve extensive tours of duty all over the globe.

Roosevelt County is home to numerous dairy farms that provide hundreds of jobs throughout the community. We're also known for growing and processing the world-famous Valencia peanut. The sweet peanut with a brightly-colored hull containing up to four nuts per pod is unequaled for taste and healthful nutrition.

The most remarkable thing about Portales is without a doubt the friendliness of its people. As you roll into town, you're reminded of that fact by billboards proclaiming, "Welcome to Portales, home of 17,000 friendly people and three or four old grouches." No, we're not perfect, but chances are you won't run into one of the grouches too often.

Portales is home to Eastern New Mexico University. It's known for amazing student achievement and affordable tuition. Portales is also home to numerous Air Force families from nearby Cannon Air Force Base (CAFB). The base is home to the 27th Special Operations Wing. Area citizens take great pride in 4

Along with the influences of the rural Southwest, ENMU and CAFB combine to offer a cultural stew unlike any other community of its size. ENMU offers numerous cultural and educational activities, from plays to musical offerings. People from all backgrounds and all parts of the world are welcome in Portales.

Welcome to the Greyhound Family! It is important for the Office of Student Affairs to be seen as a place your Greyhound can go to receive help and advice for the variety of problems college students face today. We know the transition to college can be a difficult one; students have more freedom and independence along with a more rigorous academic environment. We have plenty of resources available to help your Greyhound succeed at ENMU. We offer tutoring, including our Writing Center and Math Lab, counseling and career services, accessibility resources, Safe Ride transportation services, and health services. Our goal at Eastern is to provide the best learning experience we can to all our students. To achieve this goal, we need your help. Students often wait too long to address their problems when asking for help at an earlier time would have quickly resolved issues. If you find a situation where you have a problem or question you are unable to resolve on your own, please contact us; together, we can get you the answers you need. You can call the Office of Student Affairs at 575.562.2221 or email me at jeff.long@enmu.edu. My best wishes for a successful year,

Jeff Long Vice President for Student Affairs

WHAT IS FERPA? The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA, sometimes called the Buckley Amendment) is a federal act that was passed by the U.S. Congress in 1974. When a student enters a postsecondary institution, the rights under FERPA transfer from the parents to the student. These rights begin as soon as the student enrolls or registers with the University.

The student has the right to see the information that the University is keeping on them. The student has a right to seek amendments to their own student records and in some cases, append a statement to their information on file. The student has the right to consent to disclosure of their records. The student has the right to file a complaint with the FERPA Office in Washington, D.C..

14


Eastern New Mexico University will not disclose any information without the written consent from the student, with some exceptions as stated by FERPA. Directory information is the exception. ENMU has established the following to be directory information: 1. Name 2. ENMU ID number 3. Address 4. Phone number 5. Photograph 6. Grade level 7. Email address 8. Major field of study 9. Dates of attendance 10. Enrollment status 11. Date and place of birth 12. Degrees and dates conferred 13. Honors awarded 14. Most recent educational institution attended 15. Participation in officially recognized activities and sports 16. Weight/height of athletes

How does FERPA affect Greyhound parents?

Under FERPA, parents cannot have access to their Greyhound's records unless written permission is given to ENMU by your Greyhound. During the registration process, we do discuss FERPA and provide the necessary forms for your Greyhound to fill out. If your Greyhound declines to fill out the form, you cannot access your Greyhound's records without their permission, even though you may be paying the bill.

Can I access my Greyhound's information?

While we understand the importance of parent involvement in your Greyhound's success at ENMU, we also believe it is important to treat our students as adults. We will communicate with your Greyhound in a variety of ways, including their enmu.edu email address and listed primary phone number. We do encourage parents to talk with their Greyhound about their academic progress to help with important decisions during their college career. One discussion you may have with your Greyhound is about our Parent Proxy System and gaining access. The Parent Proxy System allows Greyhounds to give parents access to their ENMU student information. Once your Greyhound has given you permission, you will be able to view their grades, financial information, addresses and more. For more detailed information about Parent Proxy, view the demonstration video at enmu.edu/ParentProxy. If you are unable to access your Greyhound's information, please ask them about changing their viewing settings and permissions.

Will I be notified if my Greyhound gets in any trouble?

If a Greyhound (under age 21) is found responsible for violating any law, rule or University policy pertaining to drugs or alcohol, ENMU may, without a Greyhound's permission, release information to their parents or guardians.

Will I be notified if my Greyhound is hurt or in danger?

ENMU will attempt to notify a Greyhound's parent or guardian in the event of an emergency involving their Greyhound.

CREATING A COLLEGE BUDGET College may be the first time your Greyhound will be making financial choices that will impact their future. Discussing priorities, interests and goals will allow you to better understand their wants and needs so you can partner with them on the road to financial independence. This partnership doesn't mean you will always agree with their choices, but Greyhounds need to learn how to manage their financial stress so they do not become overwhelmed and let it impact their academics. Oftentimes, Greyhounds do not see the value in creating a spending plan because they think they do not have money to spend. The truth is, the financial habits they develop now may affect the way they spend following graduation and beyond. Learning where their money goes is the first step to understanding the process so they can develop habits they can live with today and in the future. Our Office of Financial Aid will be presenting ENMU's financial literacy initiative, Peanuts to Prosperity, in your Greyhound's First-year Seminar, as well as offering other financial fitness topics throughout the year. We will be encouraging your Greyhound to create and learn to live by a budget. Whether they're paying their own way or you are partially/fully funding their expenses, college is the ideal time for your Greyhound to learn or refine their money management skills.

Strategies to help your Greyhound save money: • • • •

Encourage them to plan and stick to a budget Rent or buy used textbooks Remind them to use their meal plan Use their vehicle only when needed (park and walk/bike) • Attend free or inexpensive student activities on campus 16

A spending plan helps your Greyhound understand how much money they need for monthly expenses.

WILL YOUR GREYHOUND WORK? Each year of your Greyhound's time in college, there are steps they will take to set themselves up for success after graduation; making the transition from college student to working professional begins the first day they step on campus. Working on campus is a great way for your Greyhound to meet people (networking) and have a job that is conveniently located and provides a flexible schedule (yes, we work around their classes). Not only do they gain valuable work experience, but they have the freedom to explore career options while building a strong resume.

What kind of jobs are available for our Greyhounds?

ENMU hires more than 600 Greyhounds per year for on-campus jobs including office assistants, student activities coordinators, computer assistants, lifeguards, tutors and peer mentors (just to name a few!). Many of these positions require no specialized training or previous work experience.

How do Greyhounds find positions?

Our student employment listing (enmu.edu/StudentJobs), maintained by the Office of Counseling and Career Services, contains on-campus jobs for part-time student employment and professional positions for graduating Greyhounds who are looking for a full-time job. If your Greyhound has a specific interest, we suggest they visit with that department to see if they have any jobs available.

How does my Greyhound apply for a position?

A completed Student Employment Application and resume are required for all on-campus jobs. No resume? No problem! Our Career Services folks are pros! They will help your Greyhound create a quality resume. Once everything is completed, your

Greyhound will turn in their application materials to the department, giving them a chance to make a great first impression.

Will my Greyhound's work be career-related?

While not every on-campus job will be related directly to your Greyhound's future career, most employers are more interested in the skills your Greyhound learned, not necessarily their title. Working on campus while attending school helps Greyhounds with time management and professionalism and provides a preview into the working world.

A few benefits of student employment at ENMU:

We work with your Greyhound. ENMU understands how demanding college can be. Our offices will work with your Greyhound's schedule; we know the rigors of a college schedule, especially during major projects, exams and finals week, and give time for summer breaks and holidays. We care about your Greyhound. ENMU knows that your Greyhound is going through a transition while attending college. Working in an ENMU office or department means your Greyhound will have professionals who have their best interest in mind, and will regularly help guide them to make good choices. We're a great reference for your Greyhound. The same ENMU folks who work with your Greyhound can also be a great personal or professional reference for future employment. These references are valuable when your Greyhound is starting out in the working world.

ADJUSTING ACADEMICALLY FROM HIGH SCHOOL TO COLLEGE Your Greyhound is transitioning from a very structured setting with little free time where both teachers and parents are continually monitoring them to stay on track to a less structured setting with more "free" time where your Greyhound is expected to keep track of their own progress.

• Professors may use the textbook as a reference and not necessarily follow the textbook chapters. Your Greyhound is responsible for knowing the textbook chapters and materials covered during the class.

ADJUSTING ACADEMICALLY FROM HIGH SCHOOL TO COLLEGE

You can support your Greyhound by discussing the differences between high school and college.

Classes and Assignments

• Attendance is an important part of academic success. Missing only a few classes can put your Greyhound behind and professors will notice if they are absent. • Make sure your Greyhound comes to class prepared, sits near the front and asks an insightful question or two and has their cell phone turned off and put away (professors will notice!). 18

• Your Greyhound should expect the unexpected when it comes to tests. Course content/information provided throughout the semester can appear on any test, especially the end-of-semester exam. • Each course provides a syllabus (semester outline of course readings, assignment/project due dates and examination dates) to be used as a guide throughout the semester. The syllabus will typically be reviewed in the first class but it is up to your Greyhound to manage what is expected throughout the semester based on the syllabus as the professor may or may not reference the syllabus again.


• Professors do not have to accept late assignments or projects. • An entire semester's grade may just be made up of two or three big tests/projects. • Professors take a lot of different factors into account when determining a final grade, such as attendance, participation and the effort made on assignments or projects, plus overall attitude in the class.

Expectations outside of the classroom

early and not wait until the last minute.

Building relationships with professors

• Encourage your Greyhound to connect with their professors; they can become excellent advisers/mentors and even help with future job placement. Professors are often the first professional references Greyhounds will have.

• A big change from high school is that coursework is actually expected to be done outside of class as most of the class time will be for lectures and discussion.

• All professors at ENMU have office hours. Office hours are set times each week when professors are in their offices; Greyhounds can stop by without an appointment for advising and extra explanation on assignments or projects.

• College = A lot of "free" time, unlike high school. High school students usually spend 6–7 hours a day in classes, whereas college students spend 12–18 hours in classes per week, leaving 20+ hours of "free" time a week. Greyhounds need to understand that every hour they are in courses equates to 2–3 hours of study/prep/coursework (homework) time, so this "free" time should be used wisely.

• ENMU professors want to get to know your Greyhound. The better our professors know your Greyhound, the better they will be able to assist them with a successful outcome. Greyhounds should find ways to interact with their professors. Encourage them to ask questions during class, go to their office hours or seek advice on potential career options.

• Encourage your Greyhound to seek additional academic resources. From ENMU's free tutoring to test prep sessions, we have the tools to help your Greyhound succeed. Greyhounds are responsible for knowing what resources are available to them (hence the reason FYEX 1110 First-year Seminar is a required course), but recognizing that they need help and utilizing the resources available to them is most important. Encourage your Greyhound to seek help

• Help your Greyhound make a good impression. If your Greyhound is e-mailing their professors, ask them to be respectful and address their professors by their appropriate title (Dr., Mr., Ms., etc.).

SUPPORTING YOUR GREYHOUND Choosing to attend college is a big decision. For many, attending college is the next logical step in their educational journey. For others, the decision is life changing, especially for a first-generation college student. The bottom line is there is no “typical” college student, and no matter what a student’s background is, there will always be transitions ahead. Transitions are not limited to the first few weeks of attending Eastern. While no list covers everything, the following are a few areas you may want to consider when talking with your Greyhound throughout the upcoming year. August | New Greyhounds generally experience an overall excitement, along with feelings of homesickness, initial roommate worries, potential abuses of freedom, visits home and other changes. September | The first set of exams for classes generally occurs in the fourth or fifth week of each semester. Other concerns can be overcoming possible roommate challenges, finding ways to get involved with student groups and initiating friendships. October | Midterm grades are posted. 20

Greyhounds may experience the results of personal decision-making related to the time they spend doing coursework versus the time they spend with friends. There may be issues with feeling like they don’t fit in or establishing their identity. November | Anxiety may surface regarding fall illnesses, tests and papers due, next semester’s enrollment and apprehension or excitement about going home for Thanksgiving (What type of questions will my family ask? Will they be proud of me? Am I heading in the right direction?). December | Finals week and final grades are posted; stress from class projects due, money issues, as well as continued mixed feelings about going home for Winter Break and holiday family traditions might be of concern. January | It’s a new semester; decisions and adjustments regarding last semester’s activities and academic performance will need to be discussed. February | Greyhounds may miss home again; some are relieved to be back at school, and some just want winter to end. Valentine’s Day can be an issue for young relationships.


March | Spring Break, making choices for the next school year, such as deciding what to major in (or potentially changing a major), midterms, summer employment or trying to find an internship may bring stress. April | As spring weather returns, the end of the semester is coming fast. Questions of “Am I in the right place? Am I heading in the right direction?” may arise. Initial decisions about a living situation for next year could be an issue. May | Final exams and final grades are posted, choosing to stay in town or go home for the summer, separating from college friends, realizing their first year at ENMU is over, wondering if they accomplished what they should have and planning family and/or work activities throughout the summer can cause anxiety.

Year-Round Tips

We believe these are the best ways you can help your Greyhound are to: • Listen to your Greyhound’s fears and aspirations; keep an open mind. • Help your Greyhound take initiative and plan ahead. • Be familiar with campus resources so you can suggest places they can find help. • Send your Greyhound notes or care packages periodically during their time away from home. • Encourage your Greyhound to understand many victories come through learning from past mistakes. • Avoid “taking care of everything” and encourage your Greyhound as they make decisions in navigating difficult situations. • Stay positive and encourage open communication. • Encourage your Greyhound to connect with an upperclassman, staff member, faculty member or another mentor.

Visit (but please call ahead)

Visits from parents (especially when accompanied by dinners out or shopping sprees) are another part of first-year events Greyhounds are reluctant to admit liking but appreciate greatly. A pretended disgust

for those visits is just a part of usual firstyear behavior. Your visits will give you an organic way to become familiar with (and hopefully, more understanding of) your Greyhound’s new activities, commitments and friends. Additionally, this will give your Greyhound a chance to introduce some of the important people in their world.

Helping your Greyhound with the "lonely feeling"

Your Greyhound is making a big transition. High school friends could be attending different colleges, they are in a new environment ... they are out of their comfort zone! Homesickness and loneliness can set in during the first few weeks of college. Here are a few tips to help support your Greyhound: Get off social media Encourage your Greyhound to spend less time on social media, and spend more time in the residence hall common areas. This can be the first step to making new friends. Let them know they are not the only one who is having this feeling and encourage them to take a step to say "hello" to other Greyhounds. Get involved with campus organizations During Dawg Days (new student orientation) Greyhounds have the opportunity to see a majority of ENMU's organizations, ranging from academic and community service-oriented groups to social and fun-driven clubs. While they may not know exactly where they fit in, have them talk to other students about the different opportunities available. Reach out Reassure your Greyhound it is okay to call or talk about their feelings of loneliness. Remind them that they are not a burden. When they do call, listen to them and talk it through. Talk with a counselor Our folks in the Office of Counseling and Career Services can be a valuable resource. If the lonely feelings continue or you notice that your Greyhound's coursework is being affected, encourage them to visit with one of our counselors. 21

A NEW ACADEMIC YEAR Greyhound Welcome

We celebrate a new school year each fall during Dawg Days, our new student orientation. Dawg Days is a series of programs and events designed to help new Greyhounds prepare for college life, in and out of the classroom. Dawg Days student leaders guide new students through a fun-filled weekend of academic and entertainment programs. Whether new Greyhounds are getting their computer accounts, learning the fight song or making new friends at the social mixers, Dawg Days is guaranteed to be a fun time for all! If your Greyhound tells you that they are feeling lonely, encourage them to attend the Dawg Days events. The schedule is online at enmu.edu/DawgDays.

Ask your Greyhound to closely look over their ENMU account statement before paying or setting up a payment plan. Is the meal plan selection correct? Does the class schedule look like it has the right classes?

AUGUST

Campus Safety

ENMU Alert sends text messages and emails to notify the University community when there are any emergencies or weather closures. You and your Greyhound can register at enmu.edu/Alert. You can add several contact numbers and emails, including family members.

Greyhound Employment

ENMU employs Greyhounds all over campus. Greyhounds who wish to work on campus need to make sure they have a current Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) on file with our Office of Financial Aid and attend our job fairs to find part-time work as soon as the semester begins (enmu.edu/CareerFairs). Greyhounds can find current job openings and information about how to apply at enmu.edu/StudentJobs. If hired, Greyhounds need to bring a valid driver's license (or state-issued identification card) and their Social Security card to the Office of Human Resources, Administration Building (ADM), Room 105, to confirm their identity (if they have a passport, they would only need to bring that). Please remember your Greyhound needs to provide original documents as copies will not be accepted. 25


SEPTEMBER

GETTING INVOLVED

Greyhound Leadership and Involvement

Encourage your Greyhound to stop by the Office of Campus Life, located on the main floor of the Campus Union (CUB). Greyhounds can learn more about ways to get involved by visiting enmu.edu/StudentInvolvement to make the most of their time at ENMU. Campus Life coordinates many studentoriented activities at ENMU including the Associated Student Activities Board (ASAB), student government, Greek Life, leadership opportunities and more. With more than 50 student organizations and intramural sports, Greyhounds can find others at ENMU who share their passion, whether it’s academic, recreational or social. The Office of Multicultural Affairs provides many opportunities that help students embrace other cultures as well as their own.

Arts and Culture

26

ENMU has a long-standing tradition of providing exceptional performances, productions and exhibits, most of which are free for students to attend. In addition to an active performance and exhibition season, ENMU is home to several world-class, oneof-a-kind venues, including numerous museums and art galleries. enmu.edu/ArtsAndCulture

Greyhound Athletics

Fall at ENMU means it’s time for Greyhound Athletics to kick into gear! Greyhounds can attend all games for free by showing their ENMU ID. The full schedule of events is available at GoEasternAthletics.com. Tell your Greyhound to put events on their calendar as a reminder to attend. If you’re thinking about visiting your Greyhound during the fall semester, going to a home game together might be a great way to enjoy a Saturday. Greyhound fans tailgate at every home football game. Remind your Greyhound to have fun and be safe while tailgating and to look for activities sponsored by Campus Life throughout the year.

Give your Greyhound time to get comfortable with their new college environment while suggesting ways to get involved on campus. Have a conversation about how often you will communicate.


STUDENT SUCCESS Golden Student Success Center (GSSC)

As our newest addition to ENMU, the GSSC combines many of the resources Greyhounds need to become successful students, including peer mentors, tutors, study and group meeting spaces, computer workstations and food and coffee from Einstein Bros. Bagels. Golden Library, located within the GSSC, has books, journals and other resources every Greyhound will need to write papers or do research for classes. Also housed in this newly renovated building are satellite offices for financial aid, advising and more. If your Greyhound requires any assistance, encourage them to seek out a Greyhound Guide from the centrally-located GSSC Hound Hub. Greyhound Guides will be able to help point your Greyhound in the right direction.

OCTOBER

Academic Advising

Course registration for the spring semester is right around the corner! Your Greyhound will get initial academic advising from their first-year seminar or by making an appointment with the Advising Center at 575.562.2238. Academic advisers in the Advising Center meet with students to map out a plan for spring semester classes. If your Greyhound is unsure about the academic advising process, they should visit enmu.edu/AdvisingCenter.

Midterm Preparation

Midterms can be a stressful time full of exams and projects. Consider sending a care package to your Greyhound to bring a smile to their face. If your Greyhound is feeling stressed, encourage them to meet with our folks in the Office of Counseling and Career Services for tips and tricks to manage stress and test anxiety. Greyhounds can also stop by the Wellness Wednesday table every Wednesday from 11 a.m.–1 p.m. in the Campus Union (CUB) lobby.

NOVEMBER

#ENMURoadMap Declaring a Major

Declaring a major at ENMU is one of the first decisions Greyhounds make. From our research, we’ve found many Greyhounds change their minds about their major, especially during their first year at ENMU. Your Greyhound will most likely take general education requirements during their first year, which gives them the opportunity to explore areas of interest. Greyhounds who declare their major have the opportunity to build a roadmap of courses they’ll take during their next four years. They also get a faculty adviser after their first year. If your Greyhound is ready to declare a major, they should visit enmu.edu/Declare.

Degree Planning Remind your Greyhound to get a flu shot at La Casa ENMU Student Health Services located in Curry Hall (CUR). The best time to receive the vaccine is in October and November for protection during the winter months. Health Services provides more than vaccines; find a full list of services at enmu.edu/HealthServices. 28

Curriculum, Advising and Program Planning – also known as CAPP – is the official evaluation tool used to track your Greyhound’s progress toward completing their degree. CAPP is broken down into areas that include general education requirements, courses they need for their major and minor, and any other classes your Greyhound will need to complete their degree. The Advising Center offers CAPP workshops throughout the semester so Greyhounds can learn more about how CAPP can help them. CAPP is available at enmu.edu/CAPP and through the MyENMU Portal, my.enmu.edu.


SEASONS GREETINGS! DECEMBER Winter Break

Your Greyhound will be feeling a lot of different emotions and so will you! We hope this sampling of common issues makes it clear you are not riding this emotional roller coaster alone. Anticipation | You’re more and more excited for your Greyhound to return – you wonder why the days can’t go faster. Elation | Your Greyhound arrives, and you are ecstatic! Your Greyhound’s bedroom is no longer vacant and they seem so mature. You can’t help but think of how hard it will be when the break is over and your Greyhound goes back to school. Tension | “Early to bed, early to rise” is your routine; your Greyhound’s routine is not. It’s not only schedule differences bothering you – but also messes around the house and the way they react when you ask them to clean up. You wonder how you could have been so happy to have your Greyhound back home?

always something you’re upset about. You think “When will break be over so my Greyhound can go away?!” Chat about potential areas of conflict with your Greyhound before break begins. Discussing things like housekeeping and sleep schedules ensure both of you have a mutual understanding of each other’s perspectives. Just remember in making these agreements that your Greyhound is becoming an adult.

Winter Break is a great time to reflect on the fall semester. Talk with your Greyhound about what went well and what changes they would like to make for next semester. For a student resources refresher, encourage them to visit enmu.edu/StudentSuccessCenter in early January.

Anger | Bitterness and resentment are growing. Your Greyhound is so infrequently available for the relationshipbuilding you have been looking forward to all these months, and when they finally are available it seems there is 29


JANUARY

SCHOLARSHIPS Apply for Scholarships

It’s time again to encourage your Greyhound to look over the ENMU account statement closely before paying or setting up a payment plan for the new semester. Check the meal plan choice and make sure they’re enrolled in the correct classes.

ENMU Station 8, 1500 S Ave K Portales, NM 88130 Phone: 575.562.2412 Fax: 575.562.2022 enmu.foundation@enmu.edu enmu.edu/FoundationScholarships

30

The ENMU Foundation has generous scholarships for Greyhounds. The deadline to submit an online application for scholarships is Feb. 15, 2023, for the fall 2023–spring 2024 academic year. Each college awards scholarships to qualified students who demonstrate academic excellence. Most scholarship recipients must be full-time students. Many scholarships have been set up through endowments or trusts by benefactors of the University, and these scholarships are awarded based on the criteria set by the donors. Award amounts are determined by the interest earned on the donation, which may change from year to year. To review all scholarships offered, visit enmu.edu/FoundationScholarships. If your Greyhound hasn’t started the scholarship application process, now is the time to start planning.


SPRING REMINDERS Greyhound Employment

Greyhound employment opportunities are available as our fall graduates have left campus. Greyhounds who wish to work on campus need to make sure they have a current Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) on file with our Office of Financial Aid. All current job openings and information about how to apply are available on our Student Job Board, enmu.edu/StudentJobs.

FEBRUARY

Midterm Preparation

Remember midterm week can be a stressful time full of exams and class projects. Consider sending a care package to your Greyhound to brighten their day. If your Greyhound is starting to feel stressed, encourage them to meet with our folks in the Office of Counseling and Career Services for tips and tricks to manage stress and test anxiety.

Greyhound Leadership and Involvement

Still plenty of options to choose from when getting involved at ENMU. Greyhounds should stop by the Office of Campus Life to learn more about new clubs and organizations. enmu.edu/StudentInvolvement

Greyhound Athletics

Let your Greyhound know to regularly check their “My Messages” section in the MyENMU Portal, which will alert them to approaching deadlines, upcoming events and other campus announcements.

Spring at ENMU means Greyhound Athletics are back. Greyhounds can attend all games for free by showing their ENMU ID. The full schedule of events is available at GoEasternAthletics.com. Encourage your Greyhound to put these and other events on their calendar as a reminder to attend.

31


MARCH

ACHIEVE Career Preparation

College students are on the road to becoming working professionals. To help your Greyhound go from job applicant to job offer, our career counselors are available to assist with personal career development and job search efforts. Greyhounds can meet with our career counselors to review resumes, talk about career and internship opportunities, and participate in mock interviews and more. More information about Career Services is available at enmu.edu/CareerServices. It's never too early to make summer plans! Prompt your Greyhound to stay active during the summer with a job, internship, summer courses or other activities. If they will be living at home this summer, help them make personal connections. In some cases, their childhood and high school friends will have moved away. Encourage your Greyhound to find ways to make new friends during this break from school. 32


LOOKING FORWARD

APRIL

Future Housing

Many Greyhounds will start making plans about their housing arrangements for the upcoming year. Ask your Greyhound about this if you have not heard about their housing plans. To prepare for moving out, whether it is from the residence hall or an off-campus residence, prompt your Greyhound to ask their resident assistant (RA) or facility manager for proper checkout procedures. If they are moving at the end of the semester, encourage advanced planning; for example, during Spring Break, Greyhounds can bring home items they no longer need to have at school. enmu.edu/Housing

Future Enrollment

Greyhounds will soon receive information about course enrollment dates for summer and fall semesters, including meeting with their advisers.

As the weather gets warmer, your Greyhound may be tempted to skip class to spend more time outdoors. Encourage them to continue going to class because your Greyhound’s efforts right now can make or break their final grades.

33


MAY

NEW BEGINNINGS ENMU Alumni Activities

Once your Greyhound graduates, they can still use ENMU Career Services to get resume help, practice interviewing and more. All ENMU alumni receive these services for free.

As your Greyhound wraps up their first year at ENMU, encourage them to start finding out what it means to be an ENMU alum by visiting enmu.edu/Alumni. The ENMU Office of Alumni Affairs works with alumni and other groups on projects designed to enrich and enhance the former Greyhound experience while also working closely with current Greyhounds to help them as they transition into graduates. Upon graduation, your Greyhound will be connected to a network of more than 40,000 living alumni and have access to special discounts, offers and online resources.

Office of Alumni Affairs ENMU Station 48, 1500 S Ave K Portales, NM 88130 Phone: 575.562.2125 Fax: 575.562.2101 alumni.affairs@enmu.edu enmu.edu/Alumni

34

After Finals

Greyhounds are often exhausted both mentally and physically at the end of each semester. They will look forward to finding time to relax and catch up on much-needed sleep. Tensions may increase in your relationship because your Greyhound is becoming more independent. Keep lines of communication open, tell your Greyhound you love them and continue to build upon your new adult-toadult relationship.


PREPARING FOR FALL Setting Expectations

Talk with your Greyhound about their financial needs for the upcoming academic year. Evaluate changes that may be needed for money management and work together to establish a tentative budget.

Helpful Reminders

Discuss how possible new living arrangements will affect the next school year. Encourage your Greyhound to have conversations with their roommates about who is responsible for bringing certain items. Having a conversation about communication expectations with your Greyhound is important as you both head into a new year. How often will you talk? What methods of communication will you use? Who will initiate the conversations? Setting these expectations now will help prevent communication breakdowns during the school year.

Summer is a good time for Greyhounds to reflect on their successes and challenges of the past year; talk with them about their experiences. What did they think was successful? What will your Greyhound change for the fall? Encourage them to take advantage of campus resources, such as advising offices and career services, which can help with upcoming decisions. Many of these offices remain open during the summer months.
