==What is Starfish?==
Starfish is a retention solution program that helps to create an online student success environment, facilitating programs such as counseling and advising, tutoring, mentoring, and others–with the aim of improving student success and retention.

Starfish is a one-stop shop that allows students to schedule meetings with their instructors, advisors, or other services on campus; allows instructors, advisors, or employees to "flag" students when there is a concern or give students a "crown" when they do something positive. Using flags and crowns allows �鶹��Ƶ to see areas of concern for students so we can help them stay on path to graduating from �鶹��Ƶ.

===Set up Office Hours===

Students can only schedule an appointment at times you indicate are available by adding office hours or group sessions. There are three ways you can add office hours: use the Office Hours Setup Wizard for quick initial setup, use the Add Office Hours button to add additional blocks at any time, or use the Scheduling Wizard to setup multiple office hour blocks that don’t follow a consistent recurrence.
====Create an office hour block with the Office Hours Setup Wizard====
The first time you log in to Starfish the Office Hours Setup Wizard will display if you have a role that can be a calendar owner. Use the wizard to quickly create appointment availability.

Complete the fields presented to specify:
*What day(s) do you have office hours? - check the boxes for each day.
*What time are your office hours? Enter a start and end time.
*Where are they? Select the Type of setting and enter the Details in the field provided (e.g. the building and room number of your office).
*If relevant, provide Instructions for students who make appointments with you.
*Click the Set up Office Hours button to save your office hours.

====Add Office Hours====
The Add Office Hours option is meant for setting up a recurring block of time on a regular pattern such as weekly or daily at a certain time. If you want to set up a group of Office Hours that are less structured, use the Scheduling Wizard.
#Click the Add Office Hours button on your Starfish Home page orAppointments page. This opens the Add Office Hour form.
#Enter a Title (name) for this block of time. Students will see this name when they view your calendar. The title will also help your or others managing your calendar identify different types of office hours.
#Select What day(s)? and indicate any recurrence (e.g. Repeats every 1 week).
#Use the What time? fields to enter the start and end time for the office hours.
#Select Where? meetings will be held using the checkbox(es) next to your location(s). If you choose more than one location, the student will be able to choose his/her preferred location for the meeting. To add additional locations options, go to the Appointments Preference page ofyour profile.
