SUMMARY:Empathy to Evidence: Advancing Advising Insights for Student Success
DESCRIPTION:AIR Forum\nFriday\, May 29\, 2026\n8:00 AM - 8:45 AM\nLocation: Tulip Room\n\nPresenter(s)\nWenjun Chi\, M.Ed. \nDirector of Institutional Research\nDelaware County Community College\n\nSession Abstract: Why do so many students leave community colleges within their first two years\, and how can advising help change that story? This session shares findings from a mixed-methods study conducted at Delaware County Community College\, which investigated advising as a key lever for student success. Using staff empathy interviews\, stop-out student interviews\, advisor perspectives\, a survey of current students\, and policy analysis\, the research team uncovered systemic barriers and opportunities in advising that directly shape persistence and equity outcomes. Attendees will learn how to integrate empathy-driven methods with institutional evidence to generate actionable insights for strengthening advising systems. While rooted in a community college context\, the findings are relevant to the first two years at four-year institutions\, where attrition risks are similarly concentrated. Participants will leave with strategies and recommendations to inform advising reform and improve student retention.
