SUCCEED AT UNT: SHOW UP

Welcome, new and returning students, to Spring 2024!

To help you start the semester strong, we launched the Succeed at UNT series, where every other week we’ll explore one of seven keys to succeed to guide you through your college journey and into your career after graduation.

This week, we’re motivating you to Show Up for yourself. Watch Natasha’s video to see how showing up manifests for her. Discover how she takes an active role in her life by attending class, connecting with professors and engaging with the UNT community to show up for herself and others.

Keep reading UNT Weekly to see what the rest of this series has in store for you!
