Retaining Students Through a Sense of Belonging

Even before the Covid-19 pandemic scattered students from the familiarity of dormitories and classrooms, educators recognized that a sense of belonging on campus is a key part of keeping them enrolled. Students who feel like a fish out of water are more likely to drop, but teaching students the tools of respectful dialogue, offering culturally relevant courses, and providing peer mentors who understand the stress students are under can help them feel connected and a part of the campus community.
