Analysis

There are numerous opportunities for further research into this area that the author of the article doesn't touch on. A similar study that takes place at multiple campuses and that also breaks down specific demographics -- race, gender, age, etc. -- could help to identify populations that are more prone to failure in their first year of college, and might suggest interventions specifically designed for these students just as the current study led to the design of specific interventions. This is just one of many areas in which further research could occur.
