Checklist
for Building a College-Going Culture
|
- Do
we have current data on our college-going rates,
and are we using it to make improvements?
|
- Do
we have college going "champions"
- members of the faculty and administration
who are advocates rather than gate-keepers and
who see the potential in every student?
|
- How
proactive are we at creating a college-going
culture? Is there a general expectation on campus
that college is an important part of students'
futures? Do our hiring and evaluation practices
include a measure of college advocacy as an
expectation?
|
- Is
academic rigor encouraged for all students?
Are students often assigned to classes based
on factors other than their potential?
|
- Are
we giving our students equitable access to our
most effective teachers?
|
- Are
we reaching parents with information about college-going?
