This partnership provides aid to AmiWeldon by getting information to her students,and it benefits The W as it is a recruitmentopportunity through building relationships withpossible future students.

2) Ms. Melinda Lowe and Ms. PennyMansell have developed a partnership with Excelby 5. Excel by 5 is an organization that strives tosupport families and children throughcommunity based collaborations. Thesecollaborations have the goal of preparingchildren to enter school. The partnership allowsus to support the community and promoteeducation. For our students it will allow them tohave a wider view of the education process andopportunities to see how early education effectsfuture education.

90% of RHP freshman willstill be enrolled at the endof the academic year.

In fall semester 2018, junior and seniormembers of the Honors College trained andacted as Peer Mentors for the freshman cohort(17) of the Residential Honors Program (RHP),providing academic and personal supportthroughout the semester, reporting any issues ofconcern, and submitting final reports onstudents' status at the end of the semester.Based on the Peer Mentors’ reports and otherinformation (student GPA, reports from honorsfaculty, and reports from the HonorsMentors/RAs), the Director of the HonorsCollege met with students having academic orother difficulties and provided advising and/ordirected students to other campus resources forsupport. The goal was to once again surpassyear-end retention from the 2015-2016 total of87.5% , reaching at least 90%. Though retentionwas 100% in 2016-2017, it was only 89% in 2017-2018. However, in 2018-2019, retention rose to94% (16 of 17 students). The one student notcontinuing was advised closely by the Director ofthe Honors College during her decision process.Her academic performance was strong, butfamily financial difficulties led her to decide toleave the RHP to live at home. Additionally, theoverall rate of retention during the three yearssince the Peer Mentor program was institutedhas been 94%, with only three students out of54 dropping the program after the freshmanyear. This overall retention rate correlatespositively to the Peer Mentoring program'spopularity and impact.

Onestated Action was to compare the graduationrate to the retention rate for the Honors College,but enrollment for the class of 2019 showedsignificant flux due to the entry of internationalstudents who subsequently transferred, so acomparison to the overall retention rate is notuseful. Comparison to retention in theResidential Honors Program, however, shows agraduation rate of 81% for the 2015 cohort.

One student said they wereNeither Satisfied nor Dissatisfied, which is aneutral position, and one student said they weresomewhat dissatisfied.

This may haveincreased the rate of participation, but may haveaffected the survey results.
