<p>I have learned that having an EduPreneurial Spirit means I believe I am part educator and part entrepreneur at the same time. Therefore we all work together for the organization but also for the student at the same time. Not only do we want our students to succeed and earn their degree but over time our business will continue to prosper in ways that go beyond the basics of our individual role. If a student feels they are mentored and cared for they are more likely to graduate. This will increase graduation rates for the business and ensure that the school does not fall below minimum levels and suffer from adverse effects such as the loss of accreditation. Additionally, students who have a positive learning experience will bring in more students ("customers") to the University through word of mouth and sharing of their experiences. I plan to consider my role in Student Success as both a an effort to help students succeed in their studies and journey but also as having an end goal of increasing graduation rates and potentially having a positive impact on enrollment numbers over time.</p>
