 This is a great place to discover who you are, to make the most of preparing for what's next in your life. My name is Peggy Sarnieke and I'm the director for Huskies Advanced. So what's special about Huskies Advanced? It's only found at St. Claude State University. It's not a common program that you might find at any other community college or university. It's your chance to have a mentor, to take what you really came to campus to learn about and really expand on that and to prepare yourself for what's next. All the students in Huskies Advanced, when they join the program, receive a t-shirt. It says, I'm on track, which is saying I'm officially in Huskies Advanced, and on the back it has the name of the one of the six tracks that we have in the program. So I thought about this, if I could be any animal for a day, I think I would be a bald eagle. And the reason for that is actually inspired by so many of the great shots that I've seen of St. Claude State lately that come from above. And sometimes, when you're a student too, you lose sight of, you're so busy in the next project or paper, how do I get to work on time or I've got to do this this weekend, that you lose sight of that big picture about who am I, what's my purpose, what's my vision, what's the long term of what I want to do with my life and how am I going to make a difference. Huskies Advanced is a program in which students can take a broad passion area that they bring to campus. It may be related to their major, maybe not, but leadership, entrepreneurship, environmental sustainability, international engagement, civic engagement, social justice. And within this broad range, they get to explore both curricular and co-curricular activities that help them be in charge of their own learning.
