We can anticipate that March will present different student concerns. During the month of March, students will be taking midterms and will have SEAS alerts pushed out. SEAS alerts are the Student Early Alert System that faculty use to inform a student in a timely manner if they are on track to passing the course. If a student is not on track to pass the course, this allows the student enough time to work with different departments on campus to create a plan for success. Knowing this, we can assume cases in March will highly be related to academics and coursework stress.
