Welcome from the Director of CRP
As director of the College Restoration Program, I welcome you to our web site. For many years, CRP has been
acknowledged for its one-of-a-kind academic intervention program. Strategically located within RIT's Academic Support Center,
CRP facilitates access to other areas of academic support, such as the Office of Academic Assessment, Academic Accommodations,
and Learning Support Services. We also have the Writing Lab and Math Lab where students can get extra help on a walk-in basis.
I started at RIT's Learning Development Center's Community Program as a clinical instructor in 1989. In 1991, I began
teaching and mentoring in the College Restoration Program. In 1999, I stepped in as director of CRP. It's been a wonderful
challenge to work with students at critical points in their college careers. It's clear the rewards continue long after our
students leave CRP and return to an academic department. Often, students will stop by to touch base, access resources, or
boast about their latest success. Many of our students go on building high GPAs, some even achieving Dean's List, and
eventually they graduate from RIT.
Our 14+ faculty and 25+ mentors consist of college teaching professionals in various disciplines, all with experience and
credentials in education, psychology, and various content areas. Every aspect of the College Restoration Program is guided by
the same universal principles which have crossed the boundaries of time and history--that each individual creates his/her
destiny through attitude, focus and hard work, that thoughts and actions must work together towards the common goals of
learning and growth, and that there is no escaping personal responsibility if we want to be free and independent. It is our
goal to help our students become captains of their own ship, whatever ship that might be.
