150 Forward Student Success Progress Update Today

The U of A will host a campuswide 150 Forward Progress Update focused on Student Success from 9:30-10:30 a.m. today, April 15, at the E.J. Ball Courtroom in the School of Law.

A panel of campus leaders will discuss how the university is supporting student success through a wide range of efforts. Topics will include student enrollment, retention and graduation rates, future enrollment projections, scholarships, academic support, teaching resources, graduate student resources and Student Affairs initiatives.

Questions submitted by the campus community earlier this month will be addressed during today's event. A recording of the Student Success progress update will be available on YouTube tomorrow.

This is the second in a three-part series of progress updates taking place this month, each highlighting a pillar of the 150 Forward Strategic Plan. A recording of the April 10 Employer of Choice update is already available on the university's YouTube channel. The final event, focused on Research Excellence, will be held April 22 at 1 p.m. in the E.J. Ball Courtroom at the School of Law.
