Mission
At the University
of Pittsburgh at Greensburg, we believe in the importance of the out-of-class
experience. The Student Involvement Transcript is another effort in helping
UPG students establish strong placement credentials. The Student Involvement
Transcript records leadership activities in honorary societies, and religious,
cultural, social, and athletic groups. Students use this document in conjunction
with their academic transcripts, resumes, and career portfolios to provide
prospective employers with a multi-faceted record of their accomplishments. |
