| Initiative Title | Starfish Phase One |
| Submitted in Previous Year(s) | No |
| Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | Working with multiple departments of the college, Starfish has been deemed a viable solution to provide for the student success experience of the college. In phase one of implementation, we would be focusing on the areas that will allow for immediate improvements to our ability to maximize student success. The Advising Department and Tutoring Center have already expressed enthusiasm for how this tool would improve their ability to assist students. We would be focusing on these areas for phase one and slowly bringing in other areas of the College in the additional phases of this project. |
| Consequences of this initiative not being funded | If this initiative is not funded, we will not have a toolset to expand the current hard work of those supporting student success on campus. While Starfish is not critical to our continued business, it will be able to provide much-needed supplemental tools to aid our staff and eventually faculty in providing the best student experience. |

- STRATEGIC PLAN 2020-2025
- Empower Student Success: Equitably link students with their aspirations
- Goal #1: Identify and reduce the barriers to academic and personal success

Starfish will give tools initially to our Advising and Tutoring staff to allow them to better serve our students and assist in raising students that may be struggling in our college to their attention. This will allow them to assist students in removing barriers they may not even be aware of themselves. |
