Info
This intensive three-hour workshop (two 90-minute sessions) will identify the
characteristics, challenges, and strengths of students whose backgrounds and
experiences often put them at greater risk for not achieving their full
potential and/or for leaving college. Participants will also consider how
at-risk students often confront multiple challenges due to overlapping issues
such as first-generation and first-year, multicultural, underprepared, and
LGBT.
At-risk cohorts covered in these sessions include:
- Adult/Reentry
- First-Generation/Low SES
- Students of Color/Multicultural Students
- Students with Disabilities
- Student Athletes
- First-Year Students
- LGBT Students
- Transfer Students
Objectives
- Learn how individual faculty members, academic advisors, counselors, and
other educators can support at-risk students
- Review effective skills, attitudes, and strategies that can enhance student
success
- Examine which existing departments need to collaborate effectively in order
to increase the achievement and success of at-risk students
- Consider what new programs, services, or other interventions might be needed
to support at-risk students
