The College of Education & Human Development at Texas A&M University established the Marilyn Kent Byrne Student Success Center in 2007 to support the academic, personal, and professional growth of students. In this session you will learn about the myriad resources, student programs and how the Byrne Center team collaborates with stakeholders both on and off campus to support students during their undergraduate journey.
The goal of this presentation is to support professionals as they develop Student Success Centers and the policies and programming that are implemented within these centers to support students at their respective institutions.
To address the current challenges in higher education, it is imperative that colleges and universities undertake a cultural and structural shift devoted to becoming “student ready.” (White, 2016) These challenges include declines in enrollment across all sectors of higher education (National Student Clearing House Research Center, 2019); an increase in first year students required to take remedial education (Jimenez et al., 2016); and students needing greater levels of socio-emotional support to increase student achievement (jones & Khan, 2017). Research indicates that collaboration between academic affairs and student affairs supports student learning and success (Frost et al., 2010; Kezar, 2001; Kuh, 1996; Love & Love, 1995; Nesheim et al., 2007). Effective collaborations can manifest in a variety of ways, such as residential learning communities (Brower & Inkelas, 2010), assessment (Banta & Kuh, 1998), and new student orientation (Kezar, 2001). These collective ideas can be a part of Student Success Centers that support the retention, and persistence of students within an individual college at a university or as a student success center that supports all students at an institution. The presenters will share their current work and best practices along with barriers.
The Marilyn Kent Byrne Student Success Center’s personnel, resources & programming available, technology, and key partnerships on and off campus will also be discussed.
Finally, we will have a discussion on the growing field of “Student Success” within higher education and how this term closely aligns with Student Success Centers.
Learning Outcomes:
- Learn key programming and resources that can be a part of a student success center.
- Learn about partnerships between student affairs, academic affairs and community stakeholders to support student success on their campus.
- Learn budget opportunities to start a student success center.

Supervisor training and preparation in the field of higher education is sorely lacking. Drawing from research conducted in doctoral work, this webinar will highlight findings on supervisor training and preparation and its impact on job performance and satisfaction. Attendees will then reflect on their personal preparation related to supervising and will brainstorm ways to articulate relevance surrounding training and preparation in their current work.
Student affairs professionals are critical to the overall success of institutions of higher learning. Currently, the profession is at a turning point in navigating many complex issues. One of these issues is ensuring adequate levels of job satisfaction and employee morale. Units who employ supervisors who are competent leaders can see increased employee satisfaction and morale when training appropriately to handle the complexities of supervising others. When supervisors are ill-equipped to manage, employees report increased issues in the workplace.
This session will highlight findings from a recent doctoral study surrounding supervisor training and preparation and its impact on job performance and satisfaction. Attendees will have the opportunity to reflect on their training and preparation and think practically on ways they can enhance their supervisor skill set and emphasize its relevance in their work on a regular basis.
Learning Outcomes:
- Understand a broad overview of research in the field regarding supervisor training and preparation.
- Develop their own practical philosophy surrounding supervisor training and preparation.
