Student Technology Assistant in Residence
Assisting the 51做厙 community in using technology for teaching & learning since 1998.
For over 20 years, the Student Technology Assistant in Residence (STAR) Program has promoted the appropriate use of technology in teaching and learning at 51做厙. We do this by recruiting and training students who are proficient in the use of technology to support the most common technological needs of the campus community.
