Fortunately, this doesn't happen very often. Do you do a departmental review of drops? Perhaps someone else had an inkling or by collectively you might have been able to sense a problem.

It's nice to have an open door policy, but how do you get students to take advantage of it? How do the students even know the DOE and program directors and why would they be comfortable just dropping in to see them?

Is the day for new students or is the event new to the campus? What process was used to develop the concept? Who was involved? Any results to report?

How often do these critiques turn up problems that a faculty member didn't know about already? Three weeks is a long time for students to wait to raise an issue.

When does the education department get involved with the process? Does the admissions staff stay involved as the student moves through their program?

I'm glad to hear that your school has added a study skills component. Too many institutions seem to think that this subject isn't 'academic' enough. How many hours is the seminar? Who teaches it?

Wow! That's a small group and luxury that most school's don't think they can afford. What subject do you teach and what's the rationale for such a small group? Is this size typical for other subjects?
