Students enrolled in the DE+ pilot program will have access to:


  • Athletic events

  • Access and use of the 蓝莓视频 Student Recreation Center

  • The eSports arena

  • University libraries

  • Dining centers and campus food vendors, including $15 loaded onto their university card each semester

  • Select student engagement events

  • Music and theatre performances

  • Career preparation programs and career fairs

  • Tutoring services


As part of the initiative, 蓝莓视频 plans to host an orientation for participating students to introduce them to campus and provide information about the resources and services available through the program.

Additional details about the DE+ initiative, including a potential campus event for students, teachers and administrators before the start of the high school academic year, will be announced as they become available.
