You can also make your background blurry in MicroSoft Teams. These are great ways not share your surroundings if you don’t want to.

If you want to feel a little closer to #campus, here are some new #wichitastate Zoom virtual background options.💛 💻⤵️ #shockernation #wichitastrong

[First2Finish Shockers @F2FShockers]

@The_SA_Blog A6: Our Success Coaches will be doing outreach to #FirstGenShockers offering support as we transition back. We are also re-evaluating "normal" (b/c what is that?) office hours, dress codes, in-person only services/programs since we know some of it doesn't matter anymore. #SAChat

[First2Finish Shockers @F2FShockers]

@The_SA_Blog A5: Music and the arts. 🎧🎶🎭🎨 #SAChat

[First2Finish Shockers @F2FShockers]

@The_SA_Blog A4: If you don't know where to start and maybe aren't connected very well, you can contact an academic advisor on your campus. #SAChat

[First2Finish Shockers @F2FShockers]

@The_SA_Blog A4: Basic needs and mental health should be the priority. We get it if classes/assignments fall down on the to-do list. If you don't know what to do, reach out to your campus resources and let us know you need help. There are lots of policies getting overhauls now. #SAChat

[First2Finish Shockers @F2FShockers]

@UP_FirstGen @The_SA_Blog A3: Same. Although timing is important as minutes and data plans often run low at the end of the month. #SAChat

[First2Finish Shockers @F2FShockers]

@The_SA_Blog A2: Admitting to our students/faculty/staff that many are new to online teaching and learning and we need to give each other a little latitude for going remote so quickly. Our faculty have been advocates for making sure tech needed doesn't require more $$ for students. #SAChat

[First2Finish Shockers @F2FShockers]

@The_SA_Blog A2: Student Org Zoom meetings, @FairmountWSU faculty are calling students in their major, with some good success as far as students answering their phones! #SAChat

[First2Finish Shockers @F2FShockers]

@The_SA_Blog A1: Also working with academic colleges, success coaches, Care Team and others to find out what tech resources students need (laptop, hotspots, etc.) and making it easy to pick-up. Shipped to out of town/state students. #SAChat

[First2Finish Shockers @F2FShockers]

@The_SA_Blog Q1: Wichita State's First-Gen Coordinating Council pulled together information for a letter that we mailed to all #FirstGenShockers. Students are more than ever overwhelmed with email. Thought traditional letter might help. #SAChat

[First2Finish Shockers @F2FShockers]

@The_SA_Blog Wichita State University is here participating and supporting #FirstGenShockers! #SAChat

[First2Finish Shockers @F2FShockers]

Excited for this #SAChat coming up soon!
