Academic Success Programs: UNI 220, Academic Refresher

This is the UNI 220 video which was decided on after a few drafts of work. These programs haven't gotten the best reputation over the years they've existed because, in the case of 220, students who find themselves on Academic Probation for whatever reason are required to take the class. Many, if not most of these students dread the class, assuming it's going to be a slap on the wrist for previous failings, when in reality, the mood and function of the class is much more geared towards reflection of an almost therapeutic caliber. We set out to capture this through the lens of three students who expressed a desire to share their experiences. The result was kind of staggering. 
 
All in all we went with the third draft, which, for all the raw footage, is a quick turnaround. Indeed, the entire process from initial meeting to finished products clocked in at just over a month--a very fast project compared to the normal slow-going pace of things here. 
 
Getting the chance to speak with the students about how these classes helped students find their motivations for pursuing their education was downright inspiring and easily one of the greatest things I've had the opportunity to do here at ASU in the year I've worked here.
