Tim, Calling students is a standard practice at career colleges. What makes it work is what goes on during the call. If we are calling to help, the call is worthwhile. If the call is just to say we called, we may be better off not doing it at all.

Thanks, Victoria. It is important for teachers to realize that most career college students have life responsibilities that cannot be left at the door when the school day starts. We have to teach students how to find balance.
