Would you mind passing this out to the advising community? The new TSI (TS2M, TS2DM, TS2W, TS2E, TS2DW) launched January 11th and the old TSI is no longer given. However, the old TSI (TSI1, TSI2, TSI4, TSI5) is still valid for 5 years. The new TSI now uses diagnostic scores (TS2DM and TS2DW) for placement and the reading and writing are combined in one test ELAR. As a reminder, placement into NCB 0602/WRC 1013 is 100% placement for those that fail reading/writing-there is no standalone developmental reading/writing. All non-algebra track students go into NCB 0542/MAT 1043. For algebra track students, if they score a diagnostic 1-3, they will be put into MAT 0203 (for old TSI-scores 310-335; 336+ is co-req). Otherwise they will go into a co-req dependent on major. There is not a new form in Banner-SZATXSI/SZZTXI is still being used.

I am Monica and my background is within technology and leadership. I should have my master's degree completed by the end of this Summer.

I was Miss Fit ISU in 2013 and I placed 3rd in 2018. I have experience with financial aid (I secretly love numbers) and also with admissions. I have been an academic advisor for going on three (3) years now and I am excited to begin my new adventure with each of you!

From: African American Studies <AAS(a)utsa.edu> Sent: Tuesday, January 12, 2021 2:59 PM To: Karla D. Broadus <Karla.Broadus(a)utsa.edu> Subject: MLK, Jr. Virtual March and Celebration PARTICIPATE IN THE 2021 MLK, JR. VIRTUAL MARCH & CELEBRATION! Due to COVID 19 concerns, the 2021 Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. March will be celebrated virtually. Walking on the MLK street or sidewalk will be prohibited. Any activity in Pittman Sullivan Park or ML King Park must be in accordance with City of San Antonio's Permission for outdoor gatherings. We appreciate your cooperation in helping us to keep our community SAFE. Although we won't be able to march in person, we want the message and power of this important march to continue online by sharing personal MLK March moments from the past.

Each year, a variety of educational, inspirational and celebratory events honor one of the nation's most revered civil rights leaders. San Antonio hosts the largest march in the nation, with approximately 300,000 participants. In 2021, the MLK Commission is prioritizing the health and safety of our community and visitors while continuing to honor and celebrate Dr. King. 2021 MLK commemorative events will be held on virtual platforms. Individuals and organizations that would like to be a part of the 2021 virtual celebration should submit a participation form<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Funitedw...>. We encourage all to participate, including: * Families and Individuals * Corporate and Non-Profit Organizations * Schools, Churches, and Civic Groups * Colleges and Universities * Community Members For questions about the 2021 MLK celebrations, call 210.207.2123 CONTINUING KING'S LEGACY OF JUSTICE, PEACE AND EQUALITY The City of San Antonio's Martin Luther King, Jr. Commission will continue its commemoration of the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. by virtually celebrating the 53rd anniversary of the 1st March for Justice organized by the late Rev. Dr. Raymond "R.A." Callies, Sr., a San Antonio teacher and pastor. Rev. Callies began the March in 1968 to call attention to the need for basic infrastructure on the east side. His efforts have resulted in what has become one of the largest commemorative marches for Dr. King in the United States and possibly the world. After the death of Dr. King, he worked tirelessly to have a statue of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. erected in what is now MLK Plaza located at the heart of the eastside on New Braunfels Street. Since then, community members along with thousands of others who travel across the country to participate, have gathered each year in increasing numbers to reflect on their own Dream of Justice, Peace and Equality to all in America. Improving the quality of life for all people was the dream of Dr. King and Rev. Callies. The MLK Commission seeks to continue their work and legacy by offering educational and empowering events throughout the month of January each year. If you would like to support the mission of the City of San Antonio, MLK Commission, please participate by attending the various events provided by the Commission. Your financial support is also needed to help in presenting Scholarships to deserving area students.
