Who are college-going students today, and what helps them persist and succeed? In this interactive, research-informed session, we will myth-bust common assumptions about “today’s students,” explore the real conditions shaping learning and resource navigation, and build a shared, practical definition of student success. Participants will leave with concrete, student-ready strategies to strengthen engagement and support more informed, effective interactions with students. This session is offered as part of the Grow Program for Student Success. All are welcome.
