Driving Student Success Initiatives
in Higher Education
Student success is not just a concept, but a process. From
recruitment, to matriculation and retention, and all the way to
graduation, many colleges and universities are shifting their focus
to the needs of their primary constituency – students. Rapidly
evolving technology, the growing presence of social media, and
the expanding global scale of higher education are impacting
the way that higher education administrators attract and enroll
students. This presents challenges and opportunities that must
be addressed.
Over the past century, AACRAO has positioned itself as a
recognized source for information on student admissions,
academic records, international education, and enrollment
management. AACRAO remains committed to expanding our
programmatic offerings to meet the changing demands and needs
of the professions we serve. Please join us at our 101st Annual
Meeting in Baltimore, where our Program Committee has worked
diligently to plan four exciting days of workshops, sessions,
plenaries, and networking opportunities.

Former U.S. Secretary of State and Chair of

Wednesday, 11:45 a.m. – 12:45 p.m.
“In Conversation with Madeleine Albright”
In an up-close-and-personal format, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright sits down for a candid
discussion, sharing her perspective on the current state of world affairs and on the personalities who
shape today’s headlines. Audiences are given unprecedented access to one of the globe’s most powerful,
respected and vibrant women as Albright sheds light on challenges both personal and public. Albright
responds to questions from both the moderator and the audience, and engages in a no-holds-barred
discussion of issues ranging from war and peace to the challenge of juggling career and family life.
Sponsored by
Madeleine K. Albright is chair of Albright Stonebridge
Group, a global strategy firm, and chair of Albright Capital
Management LLC, an investment advisory firm focused
on emerging markets.
Albright was the 64th Secretary of State of the United
States. In 1997, she was named the first female Secretary
of State and became, at that time, the highest ranking
woman in the history of the U.S. government.
As Secretary of State, Albright reinforced America’s
alliances, advocated democracy and human rights and
promoted American trade and business, labor and
environmental standards abroad.
From 1993 to 1997, Albright served as the U.S.
Permanent Representative to the United Nations and as
a member of the President’s Cabinet. She is a professor
in the Practice of Diplomacy at the Georgetown University
School of Foreign Service. She chairs both the National
Democratic Institute for International Affairs, the Pew
Global Attitudes Project and serves as president of the
Truman Scholarship Foundation.
Albright serves on the U.S. Department of Defense’s
Defense Policy Board, a group tasked with providing the
secretary of defense with independent, informed advice
and opinion concerning matters of defense policy. She
also serves on the Board of Directors of the Council
on Foreign Relations and the Board of Trustees for the
Aspen Institute. In 2009, Albright was asked by NATO
Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen to chair a
group of experts focused on developing NATO’s New
Strategic Concept.
On May 29, 2012 President Obama awarded the U.S.
Medal of Freedom to Dr. Albright—the nation’s highest
civilian honor—citing the inspiration her life is to all and
that her scholarship and insight continue to make the
world a better, more peaceful place.
Albright is the author of five New York Times bestsellers: her autobiography, Madam Secretary: A Memoir,
(2003); The Mighty and the Almighty: Reflections on
America, God, and World Affairs, (2006); Memo to the
President: How We Can Restore America’s Reputation
and Leadership, (2008); Read My Pins: Stories from a
Diplomat’s Jewel Box, (2009); and, her most recent book,
Prague Winter: A Personal Story of Remembrance and
War, 1937-1948, (April, 2012) in which she tells the story
of Albright’s experiences and those of her family during
and immediately after World War II, providing a fresh lens
through which to view some of the modern era’s most
tumultuous years.

During this workshop, you will begin developing a
plan for designing, implementing, and assessing your
student success program. We will focus on bridging the
gap between best practice theory and boots-on-theground action. This workshop will be most helpful for
practitioners with at least some understanding of early
alert or student success programs.
Spend two days diving into the work of the registrar’s
office. This workshop is for those new to the profession
and will address many of the “what” and “how” questions
that make up the work of the registrar. A significant
portion of the workshop will focus on understanding
and applying FERPA. Attendees will leave the workshop
with a greater understanding of the depth and breadth
of the work of the registrar, where to find information and
answers, and a solid network of professional colleagues.

IPEDS Data as the Public Face of an

This module includes presentations, discussions,
exercises and demonstrations utilizing IPEDS data tools
and resources.
IPEDS Data and Benchmarking: Supporting
