Norma, Excellent post! I agree with your perspective as well as Francesca's. My question to both of you, which is failry broad, is how do organizations improve their ability to do some of the things you say are important - i.e. "give them the right tools," "assist students with appropriate programs and goals," "educate students in careers and degree programs that are professionally and personally rewarding," and "help students establish goals."
What actions support these suggestions? I'd love to hear your opinions and how you would expand up on these thoughts.
Thanks for starting a great conversation!
