ABSTRACTConsidering the importance of faculty’s role in policymaking – especially when related to student success – this study provided a comprehensive analysis of faculty’s perceived obstacles to student success in post-remedial academia, as well as their suggestions for improving outcomes. This study analyzed survey feedback from faculty (N = 849) at 12 different colleges at the City University of New York (CUNY), from both 2-year and 4-year institutions, across a range of disciplines, from both tenured and untenured faculty, and from both part-time and full- time faculty. Respondents, overall, identified worsening academic literacies, a reduction in academic standards, and an overall reduction in student success since developmental education has been phased out. Faculty also suggested an array of policy, curricular, and classroom-level solutions that would help student outcomes in post-remedial academia. These included reinstating exam-based placement protocols, developing students’ academic literacies more rigorously, and re-offering pre-requisite (remedial) coursework. AcknowledgmentsSupport for this project was provided by a PSC-CUNY Award, jointly funded by the Professional Staff Congress and the City University of New York.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementThe data that support the findings in this study are available from the corresponding author (IMS) upon reasonable request.Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by the PSC-CUNY Research Foundation.

A study of hidden risks, anxieties and barriers to STEM student transfer from community college to a large, comprehensive university is presented. This qualitative study employed a thematic analysis of student responses to a semi-structured interview that asked students about their hesitancy to transfer to a 4-year institution. Participants included students enrolled in a collaborative NSF-sponsored S-STEM scholarship project between three community colleges and a large public university (all in the same large metropolitan area). The project included elements that are well documented in the literature to encourage transfer. These include advising visits by university staff, clear articulation pathways, scholarship support to assist with costs, peer and near peer mentoring opportunities, and cohort-building activities between campuses and on each individual campus. Transfer rates in this group were higher, but still many students with declared interest in transferring did not transfer on time or at all. The authors identified numerous hidden risks and barriers to transfer, in addition to the well-known ones found in the literature. These include additional academic, financial, social, logistical and external/family related barriers. A theme common to many of these barriers was complex bureaucratic processes and events outside of student’s direct control. Many student comments highlighted the importance of in-person connections, mentoring and advising.
