They do not indicate grades and are not permanent records. If you receive a flag, text or a referral, you are strongly encouraged to take action early and speak with the people in your success network (e.g. your course instructor, Academic Advisor, Success Coach) and to connect with campus resources that can support you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Starfish CONNECT<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>Starfish CONNECT &#8211; <\/strong>Many faculty and staff at HPU use Starfish for appointment scheduling.
