Student-Handbook.Pdf Greeting from the Dean of Students Dear Eagles, It is my pleasure to welcome each of you to campus for the 2018-19 academic year. I would like to extend a special welcome to the newest members of our community, the Class of 2022, as well as our transfer and international students. I have the honor and privilege to work with an exceptional team of Student Affairs professionals. Our goal is to be educators outside of the classroom – providing services, facilities and programs – enabling student success and creating a unique Reinhardt Experience where each student thrives. Whether it’s 1883 or 2018 – there are certain things about the college experience that do not change: we have a group of students managing a great transition, developing their own identity, figuring out who they are and discovering what they want to do in life. This is truly a time of self-exploration. The classroom is the hub for your Reinhardt Experience, however, there is so much more. Reinhardt is an amazing institution with so much to offer. Take time to explore and embrace the rich opportunities presented to you. From performances, lectures and exhibits to extraordinary campus events and athletic competitions, there is something here for everyone! I truly believe that students are most successful in the university setting if they make connections. Getting involved will take you further in your journey – whether you commute or live on campus. I encourage you to cultivate new friends, as the relationships you develop while you are here will positively contribute to your intellectual, cultural and social experiences for the rest of your life. The handbook will serve as a guide for your journey at Reinhardt. The handbook contains information pertaining to resources and services that support learning inside and outside the classroom. Likewise, our expectations regarding community standards are outlined in the Code of Conduct contained in the handbook. Please take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the information it contains. You will find your time at Reinhardt to be challenging, fulfilling and memorable. I hope that each of you will achieve your goals, contribute to our community and have fun along the way. I am delighted that you are here. Again, welcome to Reinhardt University! Walter P. May, Ph.D. Dean of Students Student Handbook 2018-2019 2 Table of Contents I.

  • Georgia Department of Education World Languages and Global Workforce Initiatives Guidance at a Glance Pathways to Proficiency Beyond High School Updated May 2019
    Georgia Department of Education World Languages and Global Workforce Initiatives Guidance at a Glance Pathways to Proficiency beyond High School Updated May 2019 For our students to succeed in a global economy, they will need to possess a new set of skills that were not required for the success of prior generations of Americans. Regional expertise, cross-cultural competence, and advanced language proficiency are no longer skills reserved only for those who plan for a career overseas - they are skills that will enhance any career field, encourage international investment to our state, and develop a workforce that is successful in working on diverse international teams to collaborate and solve global problems. Georgia is home to an incredible array of language programs at University and College partners throughout Georgia at which students graduating from high school can continue their linguistic and intercultural studies. Whether the student is pursuing a degree in a language, an area related to international studies or any one of an expanding number of fields, such as education, medicine, national security, marketing, business, etc., knowing or having a working knowledge of a second language can provide a number of advantages in the job market and beyond. The purpose of this document is to provide guidance to stakeholders statewide regarding the options to begin or continue language study beyond high school. The information contained herein was developed in cooperation with the GaDOE University/College World Language Advisory Board. For specific information regarding language programs, please contact the institutions themselves for further guidance. For a list of institutions with MAT programs (Master of Arts in Teaching) or M.Ed.
