Student Success and Retention: Where Do I Begin?

By Elizabeth Bleicher, August 23, 2021

Resources for Staff Members, Programs and Offices!

This spring, REST representatives met with a diverse spectrum of campus partners who shared their current retention and student success practices and suggestions for new strategies. We have compiled two resources for individuals and groups across campus:  

Retention Strategies for Student Success (IC login required)

Retention Opportunities Calendar (IC login required)

Note: While the calendar is aimed at academic departments, it can help student-facing offices think about potential the seasonal nature of retention opportunities over the course of a semester.

We are also offering our services to connect you with resources to support your work with student success and retention. If your office is interested in selecting and adopting some retention practices and collecting data about the efficacy of your work, please contact success@ithaca.edu

Thank you for all the work you do to support our students, and please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us if you have questions and suggestions.
