Messina Modules

Messina Modules are a series of lesson plans, including facilitation guides and resource documents designed by Loyola departments and offices for use in Messina enrichment sessions. Modules provide working groups engaging activities and up-to-date information regarding a variety of first-year transition issues.

In addition to our modules, see Messina's list of facilitators for information on requesting a guest speaker for your session in a variety of topics.

To view the modules, click on a title listed below. You will be directed to the Messina Working Groups Teams site where you will find all documents related to that module in the Files section. If the link doesn't initially take you directly to the module folder, reload this module webpage. Clicking on a module link will now take you to the correct module folder.

If your office would like to create a new module, or if you have ideas for future modules, please contact messina@loyola.edu. Please note that for consistency, all new modules need to be created in our Messina Module Template.

Messina appreciates the work of our Office Assistants Natalia Medina Lozada ('23) and Julia Smith ('24) who reviewed and edited all listed module resources to ensure Universal Accessibility.
