Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, father figures, mentors, and role models who encourage, support, and inspire our students every step of the way. Thank you for the guidance, strength, and dedication you bring to your families and communities. Today, we celebrate you!

☀️ New session, new goals! Summer 2026 8-week classes officially begin today 📚✨

🌈 Happy Pride Month from the Office of Advising, Transitions, and Student Success! 🌈

At Oakton, we celebrate the diversity, strength, and authenticity of our LGBTQIA2+ students, employees, alumni, and community members.

This Pride Month, we honor the history, resilience, and contributions of the LGBTQIA2+ community while reaffirming our commitment to creating spaces where every student feels seen, supported, and empowered to succeed.

No matter where you are on your journey, you belong here. 💜

Final Spring 2026 grades are in 📚✨

Not the outcome you hoped for? You still have options — and support!

🔹 Received an Incomplete (“I”) grade?

Connect with your instructor as soon as possible to create a plan for completing missing coursework and to discuss the grade change process.

🔹 Placed on Academic Probation, Suspension, or Dismissal?

Schedule an appointment with your assigned academic advisor to talk through next steps, explore resources, and build a plan for moving forward.

Remember: one semester does not define your future. 💚

We’re here to help you get back on track!

Oakton College Academic Advisors wore blue today to pay tribute to those who have given their lives in service.

The color blue represents loyalty and trust, and by wearing it, the Office of Advising, Transitions and Student Success (OATSS) stands in support of military-connected individuals and honors the memory of the fallen.

🇺🇸💙

Last week, our leadership team and Senior Advisors came together for our monthly Senior Advisor Institute Day — a dedicated space for reflection, collaboration, and growth. 🌱

As we continue stepping into evolving roles within OATSS, this time allows us to intentionally develop our collective goals as a department while also investing in our own professional development. Through conversation, strategy, and shared reflection, we’re building stronger connections between the skills we already bring to the table and the leadership capacities we’re continuing to grow.

Grateful for a team committed to learning, innovation, and supporting one another as we strengthen the student experience together. 💚 HigherEdLeadership CommunityCollege TeamDevelopment

Finish strong — Summer is waiting! ☀️
