Student success is the core mission of higher education.
Colleges and universities, at their core, exist to enable student success. To ensure this, higher education boards must be equipped to oversee not only metrics such as student retention and graduation rates but consequential policies, practices, and resources to ensure desired outcomes—for all students.
To help institutions and foundations in this effort, AGB has aligned with key partners to develop tools, resources, and learning opportunities to help governing boards advance equitable student success. Learn more about these initiatives below.
