Abstract

The role of urban postsecondary education is fundamentally important to the quality of life within its urban communities. Urban campuses have the ability to create physical and sociological connections with the residents of the surrounding urban environment, thereby eliminating potential barriers, increasing urban community access and involvement, and enhancing educational opportunities for urban populations. Academic advisers and academic support specialists serve as urban campus front-line officers when assisting urban students with navigating and completing postsecondary education programs.
