The research and Equity Office is now looking at student persistence rates and investigating the issue of “unproductive units.” The more guided a student is, the more chance there is that the student will reach transfer/degree/certificate attainment. Pathways and ADTs are important avenues. George also reported that the transfer tool is being worked on.
