Comment:听 The current budget structure is a barrier to collaboration, even across students support services centers.
Comment:听 We should look at a campus-wide approach for advising and coaching.听 We do this in pockets of areas, but we really should view this at the campus level. We do not want to get in the way of what is going on in the departments and colleges, but we need a unified approach.
Comment:听 We are concerned that we do not have student orientation.听 Research exists that correlates orientation with retention and student success.
