Supported by grant funding from the <a href=\"https:\/\/cpe.ky.gov\/\">Council on Postsecondary Education<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/2023\/05\/transylvania-awarded-grant-to-help-incoming-students-transition-to-college\/\">Jumpstart<\/a> is an initiative designed to help incoming Pioneers transition to college.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The initial Jumpstart cohort consists of 37 first-year students who were nominated to participate in the program by Transylvania staff members. The group is supported by Student Success Coach Jessie Rowe, who oversees the completely free program, and four student leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe leaders are very passionate about it and are planning lots of fun things to make the students feel welcome,\u201d Rowe said, explaining that each leader will be responsible for a cohort of roughly 10 new students. Leaders will also fully run some of the program\u2019s events \u2014 including icebreakers \u2014 forming bonds with the new students to give their incoming Pioneers \u201canother go-to contact person\u201d in addition to their First Engagements scholar.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On-campus Jumpstart events range from a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/academics\/study-abroad\/\">study abroad<\/a>-sponsored breakfast featuring international breakfast foods to a game night in the library. Students will learn about campus resources, attend a mock lecture and participate in a tutoring session \u2014 allowing them to \u201cput names to faces\u201d before the semester officially begins.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis helps incoming students build additional connections,\u201d Rowe said, adding, \u201cWe want them to be comfortable opening up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To that end, there\u2019s a lot of fun built into the five-day schedule as well. Jumpstart participants will take a day trip to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gorgeunderground.com\/\">Gorge Underground<\/a>, where they will enjoy pizza at local favorite Miguel\u2019s and tour the Kentucky cave in a pontoon boat and kayaks. They will also make a spooky visit to the Old Morrison administration building\u2019s tomb, which is believed to house former professor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/2019\/09\/honor-to-whom-honor-is-overdue-transylvania-remembers-noted-professor-constantine-rafinesque\/\">Constantine Rafinesque<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The program will conclude on Thursday evening with dinner with President Brien Lewis, and participants will join the rest of their classmates on Friday as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/get-involved\/first-engagements\/\">First Engagements<\/a>, the university\u2019s new student orientation program, begins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With help from CPE grant funding, Rowe hopes to maintain and even grow Jumpstart in future years, saying, \u201cWe definitely plan on reapplying and tweaking the program accordingly. We think it will be a good initiative, and we hope to continue doing it.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Several members of Transylvania\u2019s Class of 2027 moved to
