The program committee seeks proposals for conference sessions from practitioners and scholars that emphasize programs aimed at fostering student success.

Proposals highlight promising ways of defining student success, interventions that enhance success, and assessment practices or program evaluation strategies. The strongest proposals will be those that provide a clear definition of student success, a program or practice that enhances that success, and an assessment process that demonstrates its effectiveness.

Review of proposals will begin Monday, June 25. The deadline to submit a proposal is Friday, July 27. Please visit www.umass.edu/studentsuccessconference for more information about submitting a proposal and registering for the event.
