Supporting Student Success: Staff and Roles

ChroniclePage_120523_Success_Mongoose_CampaignAssets.png

Student success is a top priority for colleges as they continue to invest in new advising programs and systems that keep track of student performance — practices designed to attract students and ensure their graduation.

As student success is prioritized, however, colleges face the challenge of retaining their student-support staffs, which have high turnover due to burnout from heavy workloads.

In part two of The Chronicle‘s Supporting Student Success series, a panel of experts, led by Ian Wilhelm, deputy managing editor of The Chronicle, will discuss how to support those staff members and prevent burnout.

Join a coming virtual forum, “Supporting Student Success: Staff and Roles,” on Tuesday, December 5 at 2 p.m. ET.

With Support From Mongoose

Host: Ian Wilhelm, deputy managing editor, Chronicle Intelligence, The Chronicle of Higher Education

Speakers:

  • Barbara Lomonaco, vice president for student life, Centre College
  • Dawn Meza Soufleris, vice president for student development and campus life, Montclair State University
  • Braque Talley, vice president for student affairs, Alabama A&M University
