Rules Committee

Camp semiretires from the NHCC in 1923, relinquishing the presidency and general management to younger men and becoming chairman of the board. The change comes after the company experiences strong sales through the war and through 1920, then endures a difficult countrywide recession in 1921 and 1922, before beginning a good recovery in late 1922 and into 1923. Camp dies March 14, 1925, from a sudden heart attack during the night between two sessions of a New York rules-committee meeting. As a Camp memorial, Yale Field is renamed Walter Camp Field, and a large colonnaded gateway is erected at the entrance to the field, paid for by substantial contributions from the Yale community as well as from colleges, universities, and preparatory schools and high schools around the country. Contributions come from 224 colleges and universities. But the finest memorial could be the game itself, testifying to Camp contributions that still define and benefit the game, worthy of an occasional remembrance of the game’s “father” and most prominent contributor.

Retention And Graduation Rates

Urban and Metropolitan Colleges and Universities often serve a population that can benefit from an early college strategy. Colleges serving first-generation and low-income students often have lower retention and graduation rates than their peer institutions, as students from large urban public high schools can struggle to navigate the college classrooms and support system. While students may have achieved respectable GPAs and test scores in their high school buildings, they can fail to translate these skills at the college level, finding themselves on academic probation or worse. As researcher Anthony Jack has described in his landmark study, The Privileged Poor, students coming from large, urban districts are doubly disadvantaged by their experiences in schools; the skills that have allowed these students to get through their high schools are counterproductive at the college level (Jack, 2019).             Using an evidence-based approach, programs being launched now by colleges and universities focus on the core missions of early college and dual enrollment programs, connecting youth less likely to attend college directly out of high school with powerful programming that propels them towards successful completion of degrees and to the start of their career. This article presents perspectives from a range of institutions (high school, two-year institutions, four-year institutions, and philanthropic investors) that are rethinking these models to maximize community impact and affordability to students and families.

Information Seeking Behaviour

The importance of acquiring information literacy (IL) knowledge and skills in high schools as a prerequisite to entering colleges and universities has been well-documented in the literature (e.g., Cahoy, 2002; Fitzgerald, 2004; Saunders, Severyn, & Caron, 2017).  This paper investigates the IL knowledge of Canadian and international high school graduates, as they enter a university in Canada. More specifically, the focus is on information seeking behaviour (ISB), part of the Access and Evaluation stages of the IL spectrum (Sparks, Katz, & Beile, 2016).
