When it was originally released, Thriving in Transitions: A
Research-Based Approach to College Student Success represented a
paradigm shift in the student success literature, moving the
student success conversation beyond college completion to focus on
student characteristics that promote high levels of academic,
interpersonal, and intrapersonal performance in the college
environment. The authors contend that a focus on remediating
student characteristics or merely encouraging specific behaviors is
inadequate to promote success in college and beyond. Drawing on
research on college student thriving completed since 2012, the
newly revised collection presents six research studies describing
the characteristics that predict thriving in different groups of
college students, including first-year students, transfer students,
high-risk students, students of color, sophomores, and seniors, and
offers recommendations for helping students thrive in college and
life. New to this edition is a chapter focused on the role of
faculty in supporting college student thriving.
