Visible
Solutions for Invisible Students: Helping Sophomores Succeed
Laurie A. Schreiner
Jerry Pattengale
Editors
| Years
of experience and direct observation on campuses across the nation have
led educators to conclude that sophomores receive the least attention
of any class. While a growing number of institutions are experiencing
some success in reducing first-year attrition, the question remains has
this successul programming merely postponed the inevitable attrition to
the sophomre year? By pulling together a variety of views on sophomores
and examining sophomores' unique needs and issues, we hope to provide
institutions with a blueprint not only for addressing sophomore attrition,
but also for energizing sophomores so they may benefit more from their
educations. |
