Many students fail to maintain contact with their summer faculty advisors.
The program was offered 7 weeks into the semester, because research suggests that students often make their decision to leave college during the first 6-10 weeks of the semester. Each academic division was represented, as well as staff from the Student Development Center, Career Services, Campus Life and the University Division. For example, students had the opportunity to sign-up for a tutor on the spot, or to take the Strong Interest Inventory. The session lasted 90 minutes. Students attended on a drop-in basis and pizza was served throughout the event.
