This timeline allows us to document the various contact points with incoming Post Graduate students following their enrollment. Each contact point allows us, as a school, to stress continually the importance of character within our school and the PG program. These contact points also allow each individual involved with the Post Graduate to create a meaningful relationship. Relationships are paramount in our ability as advisors, coaches, and faculty to maximize the potential of these young men and women throughout the entire year.
