College students face numerous obstacles before they step into the classroom and then again when their academic careers begin. As such, the decline of student retention and success threatens the health of universities across the nation. Universities are challenged by declining enrollments, reduced financial resources, and an increased demand for accountability. Additionally, these institutions face pressures to compete internationally, as they struggle to meet the demands of an ever-advancing technological age. Now more than ever, college students make critical decisions about their classes based upon interactions with faculty and their own learning expectations, which are evolving as quickly as the technologies they use.

Born out of experimental education tactics, For Students’ Sake! Bold Solutions for the College Retention Crisis explores the strategies and results of personalized learning. After 22 years of teaching college students, Carmen R. Allen realized that a large number of her students were failing, dropping the course, or simply disappearing. Her passion for student success pushed her to learn more about how to meet student needs, including early intervention tactics and personalized communication approaches, in order to create higher levels of student success. She experienced great success with her work and is optimistic that others will implement her strategies in order to better support their own students and positively impact them.

About the Author

Carmen R. Allen began her teaching career after answering a newspaper ad for a position at Lincoln Land Community College in Springfield, Illinois. This decision set her on a path to find her true passion and focus in life. At first, she followed a classic “Sage on the stage” lecture style that soon turned into a more personalized approach to education, to promote student engagement and success. She recently received the Pearson Master Teacher of the Year Award and currently lives in Illinois.

SOOO DURABLE!!!
Pattern Name: Tug Rag
VERY VERY VERY durable!!!!! I have a Malinois and a Cane Corso who are both very high energy and high intensity. They have shredded every single toy, bite rag, and rope ive purchased butu this one has stood strong for a year so far. i would 100% buy again. could also just be thrown in the washer if it gets dirty which is a HUGE plus for super droolers.

my dog pulled the strap off in under 10 minutes. The leather is not sturdy and my dog was able to tear it to pieces in 20 minutes

Ok but not Leather
Pattern Name: Tug Rag
I will say it's fairly durable but when the description uses the word leather..one would expect LEATHER, not microfiber. That said..it is thick and pretty durable and the dog does like it ok. Obviously the strap is NOT meant for chewing. This is not a throw it on the ground and let ur dog have it sort of a toy. It's an interactive toy. If left to the dog most would scissor the strap off in the first 10 minutes. Something to keep in mind. In summation..an ok interactive toy but over priced for the material.

Well-made and great size for the price!
Color: blue black
Very tough product, no odor of plastic, good toy for outside, perfect for medium or large dogs. Noise isn't too bad and the color is cute as well. Can't destroy this toy!

Durable Great for aggressive chewers
Color: Blue
Will make one whole room smell like fake bacon, but my dogs love it and it’s super strong and durable. I have a lab mixed with rotty and a full lab so it’s a perfect match.
