Helping Sophomores Succeed offers an in-depth, comprehensive
understanding of the common challenges that arise in a student's

Experience® and Students in Transition, this groundbreaking
book offers an examination of second-year student success and
satisfaction using both quantitative and qualitative measures from
national research findings. Helping Sophomores Succeed serves as a
foundation for designing programs and services for the second-year
student population that will help to promote retention, academic
and career development, and personal transition and growth.
Praise for Helping Sophomores Succeed
"Lost, lonely, stressed, pressured, unsupported, frequently
indecisive, and invisible, many sophomores fall off the radar of
campus educators at a time when they may most be seeking purpose,
meaning, direction, intellectual challenge, and intellectual
capacity building. The fine scholars who focused educators on the
first-year and senior transitions have done it again?a magnificent
book to focus on the sophomore year!"
?Susan R. Komives, College Student Personnel Program, University of
Maryland
"For years, student-centered institutions have front-loaded
resources to promote student success in the first college year.
This volume is rich with instructive ideas for how to sustain this
important work in the second year of college."
?George D. Kuh, Chancellor's Professor and director, Indiana
University Center for Postsecondary Research
"A pioneering work, this brilliant text explores in practical and
meaningful ways the all but neglected sophomore-year experience,
when students face critical choices about their major, their
profession, their life purpose."
?Betty L. Siegel, president emeritus, Kennesaw State University?
"All members of the campus community?faculty, student affairs
educators, staff, and students?will benefit from learning about the
unique challenges of the second college year. The book provides
research and best practices to help educators and students craft an
integrated, comprehensive approach to helping second-year students
succeed."
?Marcia Baxter Magolda, distinguished professor, Educational
Leadership, Miami University
The National Resource Center for The First-Year Experience®
and Students in Transition supports and advances efforts to improve
student learning and transitions into and through higher education
by providing opportunities for the exchange of practical,
theory-based information and ideas.
