Stetson University

The Discovery Program

Our Vision

To provide Discovery students and students in transition with support and

programming to enhance self-awareness and the realization of their interests,

passions, and goals.

• Weekly informal sessions in the CUB (aka “coffee shop series”)

• *Speaker series with people who can expand on what “Discovery” means in a liberal art framework

• Provide strength-finding resources (think back to those links in the previous presentation)

• Offer a four-year plan so you can track your progress and proclivity toward one subject over another. In other words, “Degree Audit Software meets the Career Development Model”
