Step 7: First Year Experience


Parent Advisory Board

Parents who volunteer to be a member of the Advisory Board will serve an important role in the First Year Experience. This group of parents will become a sounding board for the FYE office, as well as for other offices on campus. Via phone calls, Internet communication, and an annual meeting on campus, the Parent Advisory Board will help to shape the experience students have on Southern Miss' campus for years to come.

Southern Style

Southern Style is a diverse group of students leaders who are selected to serve as orientation leaders for Preview and Golden Eagle Welcome Week. They also serve as the host group for university events, including commencement, Award's Day, and Legislative Weekend. This year, Southern Style consists of 25 members.

Faculty Feedback

During the fall and spring semesters, the FYE Office asks faculty to submit names of freshmen who are having performance or attendance issues. Our goal is to contact each student to help get the resources to be successful during the first year at Southern Miss.
