Bridging Gaps and Building Confidence: Student Support at Chemeketa
Description
On this episode of Chatting with Chemeketa, guest host Marie Hulett joins Les Wielgos for an inside look at how Chemeketa is helping students succeed—both inside and outside the classroom. First up, Jennifer Cox, Dean of Library and Learning Resources, shares how the college is closing the digital divide through laptop lending, embedded tutoring, new tech tools, and fun summer events at the library, including a Comic Book launch and a community-wide library road trip.
Then we head to the Math Hub with STEM faculty member Leslie Maksun, who walks us through how this dynamic space supports students at all levels of math—offering calculators, faculty-led drop-ins, exam space, computers, study zones, and even orchids! Whether you're tackling algebra or just need a quiet place to work, the Math Hub has your back.
