She stated graduation rates are low and gave a comparison from past cohorts. She said the Academic Affairs team was working on ways of identifying problems and reaching out to the former students to try and get them back into the classrooms. Dr. Brown-Wright discussed a plan to improve graduation rates and stated that funding had been received from USA Funds to assist with contacting students in default to encourage those students to return to KSU. She further emphasized that in order for the graduation rates to improve, faculty, staff, and students must all be held accountable. Expectations of students and professors need to be established early. More efforts are needed to engage the students to ensure they have a firmer foundation for academic success."
