The best-selling instructional and educational text centered on college student retention and graduation.
Real Outreach is about helping high school students, college students, and their families to understand the unique successes, challenges, and current needs of college students. This book is perfect for anyone interested learning more about college dropout prevention, mentoring, academic advising, academic success coaching, financial aid, campus resources, and more.
Each chapter has case examples of how Dr. McPherson has supported college students (e.g., African American, Asian, Latinx, White) from diverse backgrounds (e.g., first-generation, international, students with disabilities) by helping them to overcome obstacles (e.g., academic, financial, social, and life's issues) until they achieved their goals from freshman year through graduation.
She has also developed a college student retention and graduation model that she calls Real Outreach. This model encourages higher education professionals, institutional leaders, staff, and faculty members to rethink how they provide outreach so that students are fully supported when they endure challenges in college. By using the Real Outreach model outlined in the text, Dr. McPherson is confident that your institution can raise student retention and graduation rates!

Most authentic book compilation on the Oregon Trail I ever read. The way the diaries are brought to life from over 170 years ago is a remarkable achievement. Top book of year so far for me for today June 01, 2024 review Candice
This author is a breathe of fresh air in a world of lies and coverups. He brings ancient writings and new science to bring light to mankind. In this amazing work, the well known plato stories from antiquity are now put alongside this new discovery of tablets from beginning of time. This is the most complete explanation of Atlantis every brought to the public. Shame on the governments of Egypt and the world for hiding WHO BUILT THE PHYRAMIDS OF GIZA AND THE SPHINX. Once I read this book I knew why they hid this knowledge. They don't want a population to know how great the world used to be compared to know.
Randomly stumbled upon this book and I am shocked that I haven’t heard about it before. It’s hands down the best story I’ve read in years. People need to read this book. It needs to be turned into a book. This story is just plain awsome. M
This soulful book of personal poetry brought me into the past and into the present---and into my heart.
Read the first book and this 2nd one did not disappoint! Loved every chapter. More please!
