Caring Campus/Faculty brings together a group of college faculty and involves them in coaching sessions during which they identify behavioral commitments that can be employed in the classroom to increase students’ connection to the college. These faculty then engage with other instructors at their college to expand the number who are willing to employ the commitments. Report findings indicate that Caring Campus/Faculty has the potential to provide meaningful support to students who may need help and encouragement to persist in college. Such support may be crucial for students of color, first-generation and low-income students to navigate college well.
