This webinar from NACADA focuses on the following: "Students from rural and small towns continue to gain national recognition as an underrepresented population in higher education. Research shows this population enrolls and persists in college at lower rates than urban peers, and has additional challenges in succeeding at large institutions. Presenters with personal and research experience with rural student populations will share best practices, as well as their passion for supporting students from small towns. Join this webinar to learn more about this unique population and the ways in which Academic Advisors can assist in the persistence and graduation of rural students in higher education. Attendees will be provided with tools to use with students immediately and resources to learn more about the importance of rural education."
