Five things institutions that move beyond the advising ceiling have in common: ✅ Students can self-serve and signal need without waiting for office hours. ✅ Data shows not just who is at risk, but why. ✅ Outreach is coordinated from a shared picture of the student. ✅ Courses are built for persistence, with clear structure and applied learning. ✅ Community is designed intentionally, especially for online learners. These don't require a staffing increase. They require a strategic design pivot. Noodle's Lauren Dukes, Ed.D. and Alan Mlynek lay out what this shift looks like in practice. Link in comments.
