HOMEWORK:
-Have you Chapter 4 discussion questions with you.
-Please complete the following brainstorming activity:
Over the last several years, FPU has struggled with student retention. 40% of the 2008-09 freshman class never made it to be part of the 2009-10 sophomore class. 30% of the 2009-10 freshman class are not with us this year. The question is: why? You are part of a student task force designed to help the university administrators determine ways to retain students. Based on your experiences as a student at FPU, what can FPU do to improve its student retention & keep more students on campus? Brainstorm as many ideas as possible (even if they sound crazy), and place them into 2 lists:
