Feeling Accepted Helps with Success

Hi David,
This is a good point. The social/emotional aspects of being in class are very important to the retention of students. They need to see themselves in the class and that the class is helping them to make progress toward their career goals. If these items are in place then the student satisfaction level will be much higher.
