David Conley, Distinguished Professor, University of Oregon:
“Nobody manages the transition very well. For most institutions of higher education, it isn't a transition at all. The student just shows up…there is very little process or systematic thought for what is going on for the student in terms of all the dimensions that are required to make that transition.”

What Matters Most for Student Success?
![Page 25: Students Speak Are We Listening?](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56813a12550346895da1eb1b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Some Observations about Entering Students
• Students experience culture shock and academic shock.
• Students don’t know what they don’t know…but we expect them to!
• You have to ask to be told…but what if you don’t know what to ask?
![Page 26: Students Speak Are We Listening?](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56813a12550346895da1eb1b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
What does this mean for community college leaders?
• Create an “on-ramp” to college life.• Show students the relevance of what they’re
doing – help them understand the “what” and the “why.”
• Make everything more personal – show them we care!
• If we know what students need – make it mandatory!
