SAN FRANCISCO — If you've worked with enrollment on your campus or have a vested interest as a campus academic leader in student success, you've thought about what prepares a student for your institution. But have you considered if your institution is really a student‐ready campus? That was the question posed by Tia McNair, vice president for diversity, student learning and success at the Association of American Colleges and Universities; Susan Albertine, senior scholar at AAC&U; Michelle Asha Cooper, president of the Institute for Higher Education Policy; and Nicole McDonald, strategy officer at the Lumina Foundation, at the annual AAC&U conference. McNair and her co‐presenters, who have written a book on the subject entitled Becoming a Student‐Ready College , outlined the attributes of a student‐ready institution, strategies for making your campus more student‐ready, and the benefits to your long‐term institutional success and mission of doing so.
