Objective/Purpose Statement: The Student Success Council (SSC) is responsible for providing input, feedback, coordination, and project management support for all aspects of the College that impact student success and learning. We strive to approach this work from an equity framework and lens and to continually expand our capacities as equitable practitioners. We support “continuous growth and improvement of outcomes and experiences for those who are disproportionately impacted and marginalized in society and on campus,” as described in ARC’s Institutional Equity Plan.
