Centering student voices is critical in colleges’ student success efforts, particularly elevating the voices of new majority learners - working, parenting, immigrant, adult education, career pathways and Black, Indigenous and other students of color - students whose voices have not historically been front and center. To culminate this year’s Student Success and Retention Conference, attendees will hear from four current Oregon community college students. Through this powerful panel discussion, we’ll learn about their unique journeys to and through college. The students will share the college supports that have been most helpful to them and offer invaluable insights and recommendations on what more colleges can do to be student ready. Attendees should feel even more inspired and motivated to implement innovative student success ideas and best practices back on their campuses.
