Student Persistence

“Staying the Course”

Persistence is Key

It is a fact that student retention has become a national issue. Bills, mental health, and personal reasons keep piling up. Dr. Abel G. Okagbare tackles these issues in his book, “Staying the Course: Cultivating Students to Persist to Degree Completion in the Age of College Attrition.” Challenges are inevitable in higher education, and we are proud to have helped shed light on this topic through assisting with his publication. 

You can find Dr. Abel G. Okagbare’s book on Amazon, which features Kindle or Paperback. Don’t let the month of March be your “March Madness,” so pick up this book today! Buy here: https://a.co/d/6gTa6ob
