day one, making them better prepared and facilitating their academic success. The

they think are best for their curriculum and leverage BNC鈥檚 deep relationships with
more than 6,000 publishers, creating a one-stop, simplified experience.听

and success on our campus, the partnership with Barnes & Noble College is a significant
benchmark and aligns closely with the student success pillar in the University鈥檚 Strategic
Plan. Unequivocally, the Warhawk Bundle demonstrates our Unlimited Lenses to ensure
course materials are ready on day one.鈥�听
With First Day Complete, instead of purchasing materials a la carte, the cost is included
in each student鈥檚 account at the same time tuition is charged. In July, ahead of the
Fall 2022 Term, students will receive an email from the 麻豆果冻传媒 bookstore prompting them
to select their preferred delivery method. The bookstore will prepare materials for
each student and notify them when materials are available for in-store pickup or have
shipped. Digital materials will be automatically delivered to students within Moodle,
the university鈥檚 online course management system.听听
