ABOUT THE BOOK The first 101 days of college, from a student's first class to their final exam, are a critical time and can mean the difference between success and failure. In this book, based on a talk I have given to over 15,000 students at 100 high schools, I share everything I have learned over the past 10 years as a college professor as to why some students succeed while others do not. Using short chapters, supporting illustrations, and an engaging writing style, students are given step-by-step instructions on how to approach their college experience, starting 30 days prior to their first semester. The book provides simple strategies on how students can get off to a strong start in college and persist to graduation within 4 years, avoiding having to pay for an extra semester or two, by developing proper planning, time management, and study skills, while giving encouragement, building confidence, and alleviating anxiety. The purpose of this book is to accelerate the personal and professional growth of college freshmen, giving readers the tools and training needed to succeed in college, preparing students to become confident leaders and high achievers on campus, and positioning them for career success upon graduation. By the end of this beautifully designed and professionally illustrated book, any anxiety about college will go away, and students will be excited about what is to come as they begin the next chapter of their lives. BUY ONE, GIVE ONE CollegeSuccess101.org is a social enterprise committed to college completion, especially those lacking family financial support. For every book purchased, one book is given to a low-income, first-generation college student as a high school graduation gift. GUIDANCE COUNSELOR RECOMMENDATIONS "Professor Leamon is right 'on point' with identifying the many challenges college freshmen often encounter, offering concrete solutions to achieve college success."

Mary Jane Loushin, Guidance Counselor, Amherst High School "Professor Leamon's book describes exactly what high school students need to know to succeed when they get to college." Dr. Dawn Ruebensaal, College & Career Guidance Counselor, Berea-Midpark High School ABOUT THE AUTHOR I am an experienced professor and program director, committed college and career coach, and successful speaker and social entrepreneur, having given my College Success 101 Talk to over 15,000 students at 100 high schools over the past 3 years. Helping students smoothly transition from high school to college and from college to career is both my passion and profession. In 2019, I wrote College Success 101: A Professor's Simple Strategies for Success in Your First 101 Days, launched CollegeSuccess101.org, and began 1:1 college coaching in order to help more students build their "college knowledge" and future prospects.

High schools, community colleges, business schools, trade schools, colleges, and universities are committed in their mission statements to helping students succeed. Unfortunately, not all employees are fully committed nor are all administrators knowledgeable about how to effectively address the topic. Since all employees have direct or indirect opportunities to favorably or unfavorably impact students' success potential, literally all employees and volunteers must be made aware of their obligations. This book is most applicable to postsecondary institutions, but offers many ideas valuable to secondary schools, particularly those with high drop-out rates. Student Success, Everyone's Business describes postsecondary school dropout indicators and hence provides strategies schools can implement or strengthen to help students stay in school and succeed. Advice in the book involves every school employee. Twelve imperatives with which every school must provide students assistance are explained. Each is followed by an expediency through which the school can implement/accomplish the imperatives. The twelve imperatives are to help students: 1. Believe they can succeed 2. Understand how to make decisions 3. Know how to solve problems 4. Wisely utilize their time 5. Gain support from their home environment 6. Manage stress 7. Learn to set meaningful goals 8. Learn or recall how to effectively study 9. Master daily survival 10. Understand the importance of personal commitment 11. Form mutual support groups 12. Keep in mind the value of the education they are pursuing Next is a chapter providing 101 helpful hints to augment the twelve imperatives. Again, each is followed by an implementation expediency. These helpful hints are presented in eight sub-chapter units. They are: Early Bonding Student Services Classroom Matters Learning Enhancements Motivational Opportunities/Recognition Facilities Faculty/Staff Selection and Development Staff in Total If student retention from matriculation to graduation is less than 90%, it is a social shame, a drain on school resources, a likely negative impact on colleges' student loan default rates, and a disservice to students. If the student retention rate is 60-70%, as is the case for many schools, a formal strategy to enhance student retention is needed, if not required. Student Success, Everyone's Business is a painless, practical blueprint of how literally every employee at the school can actively support student success, which translates to student retention and graduation.

Be the Change tells the remarkable story of an innovative public high school launched by dedicated teachers in East Palo Alto, California, one of a growing number of low-income communities starved of the resources needed to serve its students and schools. Chronicling a rags-to-riches story of how two very different communities came together to change the historical trajectory of educational failure that had robbed so many students of their futures, Be the Change demonstrates how to plant the seeds of new possibilities in its place. The school’s unique design, modeled after successful small schools in New York City, offers authentic and engaging instruction in a personalized setting that has allowed students who start off far behind to graduate and go on to college in record numbers. Each chapter examines one of the critical elements the teachers found essential to enable student success: the creation of an academic culture, the development of high standards with high supports, and the process of learning to teach so that students can learn. “A powerful and compelling tale about how educators, parents, and representatives of one of America's most powerful universities came together to create a school that is now a beacon of pride and hope. Their struggle to overcome the obstacles they encountered along the way will inspire others who seek to find ways to use education as a means to break the cycle of poverty and to expand opportunity and justice.” —Pedro A. Noguera, distinguished professor of education, Graduate School of Education and Information Sciences, UCLA “This is the story of a little school that could. Could get students to college and beyond, that is. It’s filled with evidence, quotes, and anecdotes, but more importantly it demonstrates that will and skill, aligned with vision and values, results in learning environments in which students thrive. While acknowledging the challenges, trials, and tribulations of creating and leading an urban high school, the authors share their success in a passionate and compelling way, inviting others to learn alongside them as they build successful futures for their students.” —Douglas Fisher, professor of educational leadership, San Diego State University “With demanding academics, loving support, and genuine affirmation, the staff, parents, community members, and other supporters of EPAA, as well as Stanford faculty and staff, present an encouraging picture of the kind of high school all young people deserve. This kind of success is not easy, but in describing how it can be done, Linda Darling-Hammond and her co-authors have provided a stirring example for all of those interested in equity and hope for our public schools.” —Sonia Nieto, professor emerita, Language, Literacy, and Culture, College of Education, University of Massachusetts, Amherst
