| To
reach the first Title V goal several strategies have been used.
A SUBE
Academy has been formed. SUBE ( Student's University Bound
Education) is a sure-track transfer academy designed to increase student
retention, persistence & transfer rates. Student cohorts receive
extra support through focused activities and a personal counselor
who keeps them on their academic plan. Also, each student is
assigned a Faculty/Staff mentor who contacts them on a weekly basis.
A SUBE Task Force
with representatives from all college staff meets monthly to recommend cohort activities
.
Student Leadership/Success
Conferences are held once a semester for the purpose of having
students focus on their goals and the strategies they will use to
achieve them. Leadership skills are taught and students are encouraged
to develop them for their personal and academic success.
Faculty and
Staff development activities are also planned in order to strengthen
their capacity to serve our students' needs.
A computer check
out program was designed to help students who plan to take on-line
classes and who wish to update their computer skills
