Welcome back to the Building Transfer Centers series! This multi-episode series spotlights university and 4-year institution transfer centers. Join us for a special 3-part feature on the University of Central Florida’s Transfer Center, presented from three different perspectives: center associate director, senior university administrator, and transfer student. Throughout this mini-series, we will explore the center’s origin story, examine impactful student advocacy and receptive institutional structures, and discuss the nuts and bolts of developing spaces that work for the communities specific to the university. 

Our featured guest for this episode is Bernard Huggins! As the Associate Director of UCF’s Transfer Center, Huggins plays a critical role in advancing UCF's culture of transfer student success by developing programs, resources, and engagement opportunities.
