UTSA Thrive: A Strengths-Based Approach to Student Success
What does it look like when our students thrive? We’re building a student success ecosystem at UTSA where academic success is only part of the picture. When students thrive, it can have a positive ripple effect on their lives and in our community.
UTSA aspires to be a model Hispanic thriving institution where students from all backgrounds can excel. The UTSA Thrive initiative aims to enhance support and advocacy for undergraduate students by developing a thriving student framework that builds on students' assets and strengths.
How do we help our Roadrunners thrive? That's what we're on a mission to define and develop, through focus groups and workshops with faculty, staff and students.
