"With less than 50% of all first-time college freshmen and women failing to finish and earn a degree from college within 5 years of entry since 1998, retention of students until they graduate has become a top priority for colleges and universities," reports Larry Davis. "Federal and state governments are increasingly using college and university retention and graduation rates to create more stringent systems of higher educational accountability. My book demonstrates how "at-risk" students and colleges can create meaningful and powerful partnerships--that puts students in control of their own destiny in a manner that virtually guarantees success."
