"The Retention Agenda" is a collection of articles -- in print-on-demand format -- about student retention and persistence in college. The articles aren't today's breaking news, but reflect long-term trends and some of the forward-looking thinking of experts on the changes colleges are making to focus not just on admitting students but on keeping them on track to a degree. The goal is to provide these materials (both news articles and opinion essays) in one easy-to-read place. Download the booklet here.

This is the second in a series of such compilations that Inside Higher Ed is publishing on a range of topics.
 
On Tuesday, July 23 Inside Higher Ed's editors conducted a webinar to talk about the issues raised in the booklet's articles and essays, as well as the latest developments involving student retention and persistence. To view a video of the webinar, please click here.

The compilation of articles is made possible in part through advertising support from ETS SuccessNavigator.
