One of our favorite events from this semester was the Hobby Hunt, a collaborative event hosted by James P. Tressel Institute for Leadership and Teamwork and Sokolov Honors College at Youngstown State 🎨🩰🧶

Inspired by the Tressel Institute badge “My Personal Journey,” this event gave students the freedom to learn and grow, finding hobbies that can motivate them on their academic and personal journeys. We hope everyone can make a little extra time for hobbies during Winter Break!

Wishing the happiest birthday to Jim Tressel!

We are so honored to have the Tressel Institute for Leadership & Teamwork inspired by Mr. Tressel’s legacy. Also, we are incredibly thankful for the continuous support he has shown YSU Workforce.

Reminder that the Student Information Session is tomorrow @ 2:30pm in Kilcawley Center! We're so excited to meet YSU students and get them involved in all of the Division of Workforce's programs
