Defiance College is a place where students find themselves socially, but when it comes to academics many students underestimate the rigor compared to high school. Luckily, many services are offered at DC to help students keep on track while still allowing you to have fun outside of the classroom
For the academic realm of the college experience, Student Academic Support Services (SASS) offers SI study groups for students to receive additional outside instruction on class material.

This Thursday, Defiance College held its annual Student Club and Organization Fair to advertise the different clubs offered on campus. Not only did this fair advertise the multiple groups on campus, but it also helped students find others that have similar interests and allowed for new friendships and bonds to grow. This fair also gave Yellow Jackets a chance to get to know and interact with the staff and student-leadership who often provide valuable guidance on the direction of clubs here at DC, which gives our campus a chance to collectively communicate together as a community. Interactions such as these are what separate Defiance College from larger, more closed off universities.

Classes have started and things have finally begun to settle down, right? This may be the period where you find yourself having extra time between practices, class, and the occasional Netflix binge.
Initially, looking at the campus on the weekdays you might assume there is not much going on considering Defiance College is not a huge academic institution. If you do not pay attention to your DC email, you may not hear much of anything.
As a DC returner, I can say that is flat wrong.
Believe it or not, the excitement has just begun! (more…)
