Have students read material in the handbook on reading assignments, studying, or being a successful student. Have each student submit a list of habits for success specific to your institution. For example, for Florida Atlantic University, “4. Allow thirty minutes extra commute time in tourist season, or you will be late to class,” or “6. Always get an espresso as soon as you get to campus.” Collect these lists and distribute them to the class as a way of collecting the wisdom of your students’ experience dealing with life at your school.
