A unique feature of the authors' approach is that they also consider the role that the various characteristics of different states play in degree completion and first-year persistence.First-year college student retention and degree completion is a multi-layered, multi-dimensional problem, and the book's recommendations for state- and institutional-level policy and practice will help policy-makers and planners at all levels as well as anyone concerned with institutional retention rates--and helping students reach their maximum potential for success--understand the complexities of the issue and develop policies and initiatives to increase student persistence"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aAcademic achievement$zUnited States 606 $aCollege attendance$zUnited States 606 $aCollege dropouts$zUnited States 615 0$aAcademic achievement 615 0$aCollege attendance 615 0$aCollege dropouts 676 $a378.169130973 686 $aEDU015000$aEDU038000$2bisacsh 700 $aBraxton$b John M$01531111 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790778603321 996 $aRethinking college student retention$93846513 997 $aUNINA
