Overview

Established via Legislative mandate, South Texas College opened its doors in 1993 and has grown from 1,038 to over 27,500 students in sixteen years. Serving a 95% Hispanic Student body, the College has taken bold steps to balance student access with student success. This session will focus on how an institution can positively impact student success by implementing a ‘culture of evidence’ to drive strategy development, assessment, and resource allocation/re-allocation.
