FW: Update on CAPS Services
by Tony Lazarowicz 11 Jul '25

11 Jul '25

Hi all, Here’s details on the update with CAPS and sessions. Let me know if you have any questions.

We will continue with our short-term therapy model. This means, students will continue to have access to 8 sessions (intake and 7 therapy sessions). Instead of referring to the community for continued services, we are responding to the student body and offering an option of continued bi-weekly or monthly sessions at a subsidized rate of $50 per session for the remainder of their time at UNL. This means that the student’s UPFF is covering the rest of the cost of a therapy session (which runs $180-$250 per session in the community). We are not billing insurance. The letter attached addresses this in more detail. The students will receive this information as part of our initial paperwork packet. Please share this within your department. We are excited to offer this option and will continue to assess how the extended services are being utilized.

FW: Continued Improvements in Undergraduates' Academic Performance!
by Tony Lazarowicz 17 Jun '25

17 Jun '25

Hi all, I wanted to share an e-mail we received today from Dr. Goodburn about some of the success benchmarking that is happening at the university level. As you will see, campus is seeing some historic highs when it comes to credit hours attempted, course withdrawals, student places on academic warning and dismissal. I fully believe there is a strong correlation between the support we provide students across our campus, and specifically in the college, and the outcomes that are being measured. Thanks for all the work you do to support student success. I encourage you all to look at the data below so you can see how our campus leadership is measuring student academic performance. Have a great afternoon all.

Dear Colleagues, I write to share good news regarding the continued academic success of our undergraduates based on their spring 2025 performance metrics (shout out to Paul Breitkreutz in OUR for providing this data!). Thanks to efforts by faculty, academic advisors, success coaches, academic navigators, and program coordinators to prioritize degree planning and proactive and tailored outreach, UNL students' attempted and earned credit hours continued to rise! This spring our students reached a historical high of 14.111 average attempted hours and earned 13.197 credit hours. This data suggests that more of our students are "on-track" for four-year degree completion (which over 90% of last year's first-year students identified as a goal in their NSE inventory). And with the exception of the spring 2020 Covid-impacted semester, the percentage of students' course withdrawals, the percentage of students placed on academic warning, and the percentage of those who were academically dismissed were also all at historical lows in spring 2025. All in all, our students are rocking it. Thanks for your leadership in prioritizing the importance of planning and academic engagement with your team members. Hope New Student Enrollment is going well for you and that you have an opportunity to take a breather before classes begin again in two months! Best wishes, Amy [cid:a9be33f8-cbe1-45fb-956b-160f2bbae533] [cid:a94595b7-5efb-49dc-9dec-20b12f0bf4ae] The percentage of students placed on academic warning and who were academically dismissed is also at a historical low!

Summer Professional Development Reading Group
by Tony Lazarowicz 06 Jun '25

06 Jun '25

Hi all, I'm going to lead a small group of up to 4 people this summer reading a book that was suggested to me for professional development. We've ordered 4 copies and I hope they will be here in the coming week or so. The book is College Success for Students of Color: A Culturally Empowered, Assets-Based Approach. More details are available here<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.tcpress.com/college-success-for-stu… .>. The audience for the book is different than what I would maybe normally use for a reading group in that it is written with students as the intended audience. That is, though, what I like about this book and the value I think it is for us to read it. My hope is that as we would read through it, it helps us think about the ways in which we are communicating and using wording about student success that are both asset-based and approaches that resonate with students themselves. I believe this also really aligns with our Ecology of Validation approach that we're embedding at UNL. It seems to be a fairly easy read, so my hope is that the group I'll convene this summer would read the book throughout the summer and we'll have 3 meetings to discuss what we've read. If it works well, I'll continue an additional group in the fall. Let me know if you are interested and I'll let you know when the books get in. Thanks.
