Stepping Stone #1 - Be visible on
campus.
Example: Office area in different locations
Benefits:
• De facto consultant for that program
• Easy way to build relationships with
faculty
• Perceived a “real” faculty

How does the campus perceive you?
How do they refer to your program?
Is it still remedial reading?
“Perception is real
even when it is not reality.”
-- Edward de Bono

Stepping Stone:
Schedule various levels at the
same time to allow for
adjustments of placement
without rescheduling.
