SUBR Freshmen Online Pilot Website
The SUBR Freshmen Online pilot
website is a module of the College
Knowledge Station devoted to freshmen who
are the future of Southern
University!
The purpose of the site is to
provide a place online where
you and other students can gather
and network socially, access
information about courses in
SUBR's Basic Freshman Studies
Program, communicate, and
listen to a fantastic Internet
radio talk show hosted by
none other than - an SUBR freshman!
The primary academic
links in this site will be
to information about Freshman
Seminar 111 (Professor Josephine
Fortune's section) and possibly in the
future to Freshman Seminar
110 and other sections of FRMN
111.
These two courses are required
for all freshmen students and
help students meet the levels
of academic proficiencies required
in the
Basic Freshman Studies Program which
has sections taught by several
instructors.
We
hope you enjoy exploring
this site made especially for you!
