The Campus Practices for Student Success Conference is designed to encourage effective campus practices by spotlighting particularly promising and/or successful CSU campus efforts.

Agenda
The event begins with a reception at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, October 19, 2006, followed by a dinner featuring keynote speaker Clifford Adelman, Senior Research Analyst, U.S. Department of Education-author of noted studies, including: Answers in the Toolbox: Academic Intensity, Attendance Patterns, and Bachelor's Degree Attainment (1999) and The Toolbox Revisited (2006).

Campus leaders understand well the Trustees initiative to facilitate graduation, and the high priority that the Board has placed on the set of activities represented in twenty-two enumerated practices that Chancellor Reed asked be put in place (See Coded Memo AA-2005-21).

Responding to the Chancellor's request, campuses forwarded plans to the Chancellor's Office in December 2005, and in Spring 2006 a series of visits by CSU peers to campuses began. These have provided fresh review and veteran insight for campus efforts, in support of campus initiatives.
