Retention Coordinator, Niquacha Snead, talks about the resources available to the students.

“The retention services, we are definitely here to help students get across that graduation mark; help them with any resources that they may or may not have. We have special populations to assist, and just give them a holistic view of the campus. We have found that student participation increased graduation. So, we just wanna be here for the students,” said Snead.
