Greetings!
I trust that your holidays were joyous, restful, and filled with good cheer. At the very least, I sincerely hope the winter break was a good time to reconnect with your student. They have changed, havent they? Its all good. Right!?!
For some students, the holiday season and its aftermath can generate a mix of emotions. The time at home with family and old friends is commonly a positive time, but as students return to campus after the winter break hiatus, some will struggle a bit with separating from
home-base and returning to campus. And then, of course, students are facing the rigor of a new semester and a full course load.
Please remember University Housing staff are here to aid with these sorts of transitions. If your student has found the transition from home-to-college-and-back-to-campus again more than unusually stressful, please encourage your student to contact our Residence Life staff with their concerns and questions. Remember, we are here to assist parents with your own questions as well.
Our fall semester was a bit of a blur at CSU, Chico, and while its still early in the spring semester, I suspect that summer will be here very shortly. Ugh!
Within the next several weeks, current students interested in living on campus next year will be invited to re-apply for on-campus student housing. Returning students will be accommodated at University Village and in our newest residential community, Sutter Hall. We hope that you will encourage your student to consider living on campus for another year. So, before final student housing decisions are made for the next academic year, we encourage you and your student to discuss the many options available. Of course, we think a students best option is to remain on campus. That said, in this edition of Our House the article titled: Is Your Student Moving Off-Campus Next Year? provides must read information when evaluating various housing options in Chico.
In closing, thank you for your support, encouragement, and understanding throughout the fall semester.
I continue to hope that you find Our House to be a beneficial resource. Please let us know how we can further assist you.
Until next time and with every good wish,
Happy 2015!
David Stephen, EdD Director

HEALTH WATCH: DEPRESSION AFTER THE HOLIDAYS Depression can hit college students after they return to campus following the holiday fun and the warm embrace of family and friends. Spring semester means the novelty of college has worn off, illness often spreads, and parents start getting calls from their students, Can I come home? What s a parent to do?
The Depressed Student Depression, and the variety of ways it manifests itself, is part of a natural emotional and physical response to lifes ups and downs. With the busy and demanding life of a college student, it is safe to assume that most students will experience periods of reactive depression in their college careers. It is when the symptoms become so extreme, or are so enduring, that they begin to interfere with the students ability to function in school, work, or social environments, that the student will come to your attention and be in need of assistance.
Typically, a depressed student may feel guilty or angry at themselves, have trouble concentrating or remembering, lose interest in schoolwork or usual activities, or feel worthless or inadequate. Physical symptoms include changes in appetite (usually a loss of appetite), difficulty sleeping (usually trouble falling asleep or early morning wakening), and low energy level.
DO: Let the student know youve noticed that they appear to be
feeling down and you would like to help.
Reach out and encourage the student to express how they are feeling.
Tell the student of your concerns.
Offer options to further investigate and manage the symptoms of the depression, including counseling if it seems appropriate.
DONT: Minimize the students feelings, e.g., Dont worry,
Crying wont help, or Everything will be better tomorrow.
Be afraid to ask whether the student is suicidal if you think they may be.
We offer free counseling services to currently enrolled students. Both individual and group formats are used to improve interpersonal skills, self-awareness, problem solving ability, and spiritual/emotional integration. If your student is struggling with a personal problem, please encourage them to visit our center.

WILL YOUR STUDENT LIVE WITHUniversity Housing AGAIN?
We encourage you to talk to your student about their living choices for their sophomore year at CSU, Chico. We remain convinced that the second most important decision students make after finalizing their college choice is where they are going to reside.
Continuing students will receive email communication through their Wildcat accounts in March about continuing to live at University Housing.
Stay tuned!

IS YOUR STUDENT THINKING OF JOINING A
Fraternity Or Sorority? California State University, Chicos Greek community is dynamic and growing. Currently there are over 1,200 students affiliated with 19 University recognized Greek letter fraternities and sororities. Fraternity and sorority members represent approximately 1 percent of the undergraduate student body.
University recognized fraternities and sororities are self-governing organizations. Fraternity and Sorority Affairs coordinate most programmatic and administrative functions. Our fraternity and sorority coordinators are full-time professionals who oversee the operations and education of the Greek community.
Being a member of our Greek community has helped many fraternity and sorority members adapt to the scholastic and social challenges posed by college life. They find a support system within their chapter that is a home away from home. Chico Greek students gain valuable leadership skills, raise money for charities like Up til Dawn, and frequently exceed the all-campus GPA. They hold Associated Students leadership positions, volunteer

thousands of hours each year to the Chico community, and make friendships that will last a lifetime.
Joining a fraternity or sorority in Chico is an important decision for your student, and one you need to be comfortable with as well. We hope that this page will provide you with information about the Greek community and answer your questions.

SUPPORT YOUR STUDENTacademicallyWhen students picture their life at CSU, Chico, they often dream of the fun they will have and exciting new ideas they will gain. Sadly, some students are unprepared for the realities that they may face. These struggles include failing exams, needing help understanding assignments, and learning new study skills to achieve desired grades.
Feeling alone, many students are unaware that there are resources on campus to assist with their academic needs. As a parent, you may feel helpless in assisting them. At CSU Chico, we have a student learning center to help any and all students who may be academically struggling.
Our Student Learning Center (SLC) offers personal tutoring lessons with trained faculty and peer tutors, study skill resources, and skill learning workshops.
The mission of the SLC is to provide services that will assist CSU, Chico students to become independent learners. The SLC prepares and supports students in college coursework by offering a variety of programs and resources to meet student needs. They facilitate the academic transition and retention of students from high schools and community colleges by providing study strategy information, content subject tutoring, writing assistance, and supplemental instruction.

Is Your Student Moving
OFF-CAMPUS Next Year?
A s spring gets into full swing, one common question that students start considering is whether or not to move off-campus after the current academic year. Living off-campus provides much more independence and many new responsibilities. We encourage you to have a conversation with your student regarding the multiple factors that can come into play when they rent an apartment or house.
Cost The biggest piece of advice to give your student in terms of the costs of living off-campus is to seriously think about the expectations you and your student hold for the living situation. What can your student afford for rent and other expenses? Encourage your student to map out a budget. Encourage them to ask friends who live off-campus what to expect in terms of rent, food, utilities, etc., in order to help make these decisions. Before determining your students overall budget for a new home, make sure to ask the property owners what amenities are included in the monthly rent (e.g., water, sewage, electric, cable, Internet).
Wish List Quite often students do not think about what amenities they would like to have when searching for a new home. Encourage
versus their wants. Have them put the list in order of importance and priority. An example may include a parking spot for their vehicle or access to a bus stop for alternate transportation. Remind your student that they will need to be flexible regarding their wish list in regards to their budget. More amenities can often mean an increase in rent.
Roommates While budget and amenities are important, it is equally important to consider roommates. Are their friends going to be the same individuals that they would want to live with next academic year? Reminding your student to have conversations about chores, sharing space, as well as sleep and study habits will help them determine if they wish to live with a friend or find a place of their own.
So where should your student begin their off-campus housing search? CSU, Chico, University Housing and Food Service (UHFS) students can search for off-campus housing 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
UHFS has a website that allows students to search local off-campus housing listings online at http://www.csuchico.edu/housing/ housing-options/off-campus-housing.
Students can use the site to browse available properties in the Chico area. They can also modify their search by house or apartment style, number of bedrooms, and price range. Photos are available, as well as the ability to email property owners and other students.
In addition, UHFS offers a 24-hour outdoor kiosk for rental information and listings. The glass-enclosed kiosk is lighted, protected from the weather, and accepts listings from anyone, free of charge. The kiosk is located outside of the UHFS office on the corner of Citrus and Legion avenues on the CSU, Chico campus.
Moving off-campus is a huge transition and we encourage you to begin a conversation with your student sooner rather than later. For any further questions, please feel free to University Housing at [email protected].
UHFS is hosting an off-campus Housing Fair on Wednesday, February 25, 47 p.m. in the Sutter Courtyard. Encourage your student to attend.

Help! I Need Somebody! What to do when your child is struggling
all it a parents intuition, but youknow when its time to ask, Whats wrong? and you know how to help.Yet, when your child is away at school,you may not be able to step in so easily and help make things right. Dont
worry! There are plenty of folks on campus to helpyour student, no matter what the problem is. Academics
If your child is struggling with her classes, ask ifshe has spoken with any of these people: Professors know the material better than anyone,
so why not go straight to the source? Ask yourchild if she has visited her professor during officehours or after class.
Perhaps the professor has made arrangements forsupplemental instruction, taught by a tutor whohas experience with the subject matter. This typeof instruction is usually connected directly towhat the professor is teaching in class and offersanother way of learning the material.
Check with the campus Learning Lab. They havetutors to help students. These are usually olderstudents who have aced the class and can helpexplain the material in a different way than theprofessor.
If you sense that your student is really struggling,or perhaps she was diagnosed with a learning disability in high school, suggest that she talk withsomeone in the Office of Disability Services. Shemight be entitled to extra time to take tests or aquiet testing area, free from distraction.
Dont forget theAcademic Advisor. She might be able to offerother options specific toyour childs campus.
Housing If your child is having a
problem with his roommate, encourage him to talk tothe roommate. Often times, small things are ignoredtoo long and turn into bigger problems. Make sure he has told his roommate nicely what
is bothering him so his roommate can correct the
problem. If it persists, there are people to help. Encourage your child to talk with residence life
staff. They are most likely trained in mediationand can help roommates come to a compromise.
Ask if there are peer mediators on campus, otherthan the RA. These people will be even bettertrained in helping students resolve a conflict.
If your child doesnt feel like its working out,suggest he talk to someone in the Residence Lifeor Housing office. They will make the determination whether a room change is necessary (or evenpossible) and can help finalize that process.
Emotional Health When something big, like a death in the family or
a divorce, has happened, your child might feel overwhelmed. Or if you sense that her class load is particularly tough, you might suggest she seek someone totalk to on campus about it. The Campus Counseling Center offers licensed
professional who will listen to your child and helpher find balance.
Wellness Centers might offer counseling in addition to other tools to help students cope withclasses. For example, they might offer trainings ontime management or organizational skills.
Career Services can help a student define why sheis at college. They provide testing to help studentsdecide on career interests and possible majors.
Physical Health If your child is ill, encourage him to visit the
Health Services office. They can usually dispensemedicine to help ease a cold. If its somethingmore serious than that, they can make a referral toa local doctor if they dont have one on campus.
Some schools have a Womens Center for health concerns specific to women. A nurse practitionermight be on staff to conduct exams and distributeprescriptions.
If your child is concerned about gaining thefreshman fifteen, encourage him to find thecampus fitness center. There should be a traineravailable to help create a workout plan so hedoesnt overdo it. Regular exercise can also helpkeep stress levels down!

Tapping Into Campus Resources
Visiting the Career Center
any students dont set foot inM the campus Career Centeruntil theyre a senior, frantic toget their resume critiqued sothey can find a job. Yet, itswise to visit this helpful officeearly on even during the first
year because career counselors can help students geton track and explore career options they may not haveknown about otherwise.
Jobs within Different Majors. For instance, manycareer offices offer helpful lists of What You Can Do with a ____ Major. If your student is a biology major,does she know about options beyond the lab? She canwork for an environmental group,take a job in azoo, teach, be a science writer and so much more.
Personal Career Inventories. Your student can also take a career inventory or twoto identify possible interests. Many of these personalsurveys can be done online, right in the career center.And the trained professionals within the office canhelp students go over their results and determine their next steps.
Job Prep To prepare for filling out job applications and prepar
ing a resume, students should be able to: List their last employers, complete with contact
names, addresses and phone numbers. List their dates of employment in chronological order.
List the accurate names and dates of awards they ve received.
List various community service/volunteer efforts, along with accurate dates and agency/organization names. Having these pieces of information readily on hand
will help your student be able to easily fill out an applica tion at a moment s notice.
Career Counselors and Peer Mentors. These caring,knowledgeable staff members want to help guide students in their career exploration. So, encourage yourstudent to make an appointment for an informationalmeeting where they can get to know a career counselor, as well as what the Career Center has to offer.
A Career File. Opening a career file makes sense,too. This is a way for your student to develop a relationship with one of the career counselors and to starta personal paper trail. This file might include letters ofrecommendation for summer jobs/internships, inven
tory results, resume drafts and more. Whynot start now?
Resources Aplenty. The career center is also chock full of resources! Spending anhour in this office flipping through books,magazines and journals is time well spent.
So, encourage your student to make anappointment at the career center thissemester. The earlier the better, before the center gets bombarded with juniors andseniors in a frenzy. Help your student not be one of these frantic upperclassmen.Instead, hell be a wellinformed, wellprepared student taking control of his owndestiny.
