Success may be defined as increased retention, completion rates, in-career job placement, decreased time to degree, boosting diversity, etc... They will be awarded based on specific initiatives that have been developed and implemented. These are not limited to the classroom and do not need to be pedagogical, but they should affect the academic success of our students.
