Student Resources

If you are in need of resources, and just don't know what resource/assistance that you need, please stop by the Military & Post-Traditional Student Center in the Basement of Daugette Hall or get in touch with Tashua Dennis (tbdennis@jsu.edu or 256-782-8840) and we will assist you.
