Declining enrollments, financial/economic conditions and increasingly underprepared populations are just a few of the challenges facing Ohio universities today. This has led universities to develop new strategies toward the recruitment and retention of students. Some strategies, such as the Ohio P-16 initiative, have explored the use of business concepts such as supply chain management to develop new ways to approach the educational process. This paper will explore the grassroots efforts of how one regional campus is incorporating supply chain management concepts into the education process in a unique way. We will examine the effects this business model could have on educational efforts to better serve underprepared populations entering into the college realm. The effects on enrollment levels, persistence rates, and the overall long-term performance of students will also be discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
