Specifically, the study seeks to determine the barriers and motivators that influence their education in regards to retention and persistence in academic programs. The study seeks to show that if socioeconomic barriers are indeed a major hindrance to their success, then there is a need for an intervention strategy. Therefore, our work could suggest that progress toward educational equity may be achieved through identifying barriers and implementing an intervention plan that could potentially increase student success. The results from the research study assisted in identifying ways to implement already-existing resources and connect them with student barriers. This study helped utilize the college's resources to the fullest potential. Once student barriers are identified, the institution can then determine ways to offer students suggestions on how to better their circumstances.application/pdfensocioeconomic barriersresourcesstudent successCommunity college students--North Carolina--Lenoir County--Economic conditionsCommunity college students--North Carolina--Lenoir County--Social conditions.Academic achievementEducational equalization--North Carolina--Lenoir CountyFACE THE FACTS: IDENTIFYING POTENTIAL SOCIOECONOMIC BARRIERS THAT IMPACT SUCCESS FOR STUDENTS ENROLLED AT LENOIR COMMUNITY COLLEGEDoctoral Dissertation2022-06-07
