In this episode we discuss the following 8 reasons why colleges and universities should focus on retention and student success:
- a declining national pool of high school graduates;
- increased pressures to grow revenues;
- a growing call from the public for increased accountability;
- the need to close the equity and achievement gaps;
- the ever-changing generational landscape;
- an increased desire for flexibility through online learning;
- Gen Z’s declining interest in traditional higher education; and
- it is simply the right thing to do.
