Winds of Change - College 2017 - 18

ROOTS and WINGS
For most students, the prerequisites for academic success include more than intro courses. To do well in
a rigorous campus environment, students need a strong safety net of support that includes like-minded
friends, effective mentors, and cultural affirmation.
There's plenty of research reinforcing the idea that on-campus support - like an AISES College
Chapter - plays a crucial role in helping students stick to their academic paths. An article in the Journal
of Developmental Education, for one, points out that the most effective of these networks have even more
"retention strategies" in place. Those ancillary factors can include pre-college academic preparation,
family and faculty support, social support systems in the form of American Indian/Alaska Native student
associations, multicultural offices, peer mentoring programs, academic counseling, and cultural ceremonies. Universities that call upon multiple resources see more students staying in school, doing better
academically, and completing their degrees.
Of course, some students are able to create their own support system, but others find that when there's
a built-in resource, they do much better. If you're in this group, you'll find many schools ready to welcome
you with programs and organizations already in place. Here's a look at just some of them.
