Spring 2023 Book Discussion

Relationship-Rich Education: How Human Connections Drive Success in College

Research shows that the single factor most influencing student success in college is human relationships. This spring the ECTL is offering a series of book club sessions using Peter Felten’s and Leo Lambert’s, Relationship-Rich Education: How Human Connections Drive Success in College (2020). This book is referenced in UW’s strategic implementation plan. Participants will engage in discussions on how to move student, faculty, and administrative relationships from the periphery to the center of higher education.  

Each participant who registers will receive a complimentary copy of the book. Each group will meet for three sessions throughout the semester. Those who attend all three sessions will be invited to a special presentation with the authors in the fall of 2023.  

Some groups are offered online and some in-person. Each group will be capped at 10 participants to provide an environment where conversation and communication can be most effective. If you do not see a group when you register, the group is already full and no longer available. Hopefully, there is another group that will work with your schedule. Groups will remain open until they are full.  

Book Groups are completed for the semester.
