In our thriving west Texas economy, connections and engagement are more important than ever before. D4C was designed to provide a framework for meaningful connections and engagement between students, their success coach and a faculty mentor. It is student centered and completion focused, and provides students with clear, coherent pathways, with high expectations and wrap around support. D4C has shifted the advising paradigm from triage and procrastination to deliberate and intentional interactions, and has established a support system that is accountable for performance and success – a group of three committed to providing and finding the right support at the right time.
