Show Me the Way: The Power of Advising in Community Colleges

With survey findings collected from over 130,000 community college students across more than 200 institutions, Show Me the Way: The Power of Advising in Community Colleges confirms that students who receive more advising—more time with advisors and more in-depth discussions in their sessions—are more engaged.

Executive Director Evelyn Waiwaiole and Center staff facilitated a webinar on Show Me the Way on Tuesday, February 27. You can view a recording of the webinar here.
