Examining Student Retention through an Organizational Behavior Lens<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n

An abundance of scientific evidence indicates that student retention is a complex issue. At Stetson, we have grappled with this challenge for many years and have acquired valuable insights about the antecedents of retention. Despite these contributions, recent statistics suggest that it is important to advance our understanding of this complex issue. In response to this need, we examine student retention at Stetson through the lens of organizational behavior, for example by applying theories of employee turnover, job embeddedness, and organizational commitment, among others. To this end, we have designed a mixed-methods study and are collecting data to acquire new insights that may help us improve student experiences and retention at Stetson.<\/p>\n
