John M. Braxton is associate professor in the Department of Leadership and Organizations at Vanderbilt University's Peabody College and editor of the series Vanderbilt Issues in Higher Education, in which this volume appears. His many books include Faculty Misconduct in Collegiate Teaching.
By choosing to rework and examine college student retention, the authors have chosen to bravely confront, revise, and augment the venerated Tinto Interactionist Theory. Unafraid to challenge an icon of higher education that has been well-respected for over twenty-five years, the authors provide new theories and directions more appropriate to the diverse college students found on the campuses of the twenty-first century. --Linda Serra Hagedorn, Center for Higher Education Policy Analysis, University of Southern California
