Hi, I had the chance to visit the UC Clermont College Library and Learning Commons with Valentine Johns from Academic Affairs, and there is so much support available to students. They have group study sessions, one-on-one tutoring and writing assistance, both in person and online. The data speaks for itself: Students who visit the Learning Commons five or more times earn, on average, a half‑point higher GPA and are more likely to stay in their program of study. They even offer an AI tutor that’s available anytime students need help. Learn more about these great resources at ucclermont.edu. (-tim)
