Student retention coordinator position

University Relations

Does UAF have a position that exclusively deals with overall Student Retention regardless of income or first generation status,  or do they just withdraw from classes and programs without much objection?   I ask because seems like having students meet with a person who specializes in class and program withdrawal prevention and who can provide holistic assistance/advice about all how all the discrete parts of student life work together (financial aid, courseload, student health, employment, student exchange, etc) and provide support when necessary would be a good idea.

Just a thought.
