The Early Alert Support Team (EAST) recognizes the importance of consistent, prompt, and targeted intervention when a student struggles with an issue or concern.

However, EAST also recognizes the power of praise as an effective reinforcer for desired behavior. Positive feedback is also critical to effective student formation. If you would like to provide positive feedback to a student, praise a recent and noted improvement, or congratulate a job well done, please fill out the following applause form. Questions about the applause form can be directed to east@blackburn.edu.
