A policy issue facing community colleges today is that of persistence and completion rates in American institutions of higher learning. Reclaiming global competitiveness through improved educational attainment of United States citizens is a national imperative. Recognizing the important role community colleges play in preparing members of communities for the needs of the workforce and thus creating sustainable individuals and sustainable communities is an imperative.

520 $a A policy issue facing community colleges today is that of persistence and completion rates in American institutions of higher learning. Reclaiming global competitiveness through improved educational attainment of United States citizens is a national imperative. Recognizing the important role community colleges play in preparing members of communities for the needs of the workforce and thus creating sustainable individuals and sustainable communities is an imperative.
520 $a When a student begins his or her academic journey in higher education, it is incumbent on the leadership of these institutions to recognize and value the importance of 1) early student engagement in the institution, which will lead to 2) increased student persistence semester-to-semester, which will lead to 3) improved student learning and self-confidence, which will lead to 4) the increased potential for student graduation/completion, which will ultimately lead to 5) self-sustaining citizens in America's communities. Each step along the students' journey must be supported with relevant coursework conducted within a nurturing yet challenging environment.
520 $a Using coursework that taught the fundamental lessons of an entrepreneurial mindset, the researcher explored whether the impact of these lessons, which encourage students to become the entrepreneurs of their own lives, led to increased persistence toward completion of their academic goals. The lessons taught in the entrepreneurial mindset coursework include: 1) The Power of Choice, 2) Seeking Opportunity, 3) Taking Ideas to Action, 4) The Power and Pursuit of Knowledge, 5) Creating Wealth through Resources, 6) Your Accountability to Your Brand, 7) Creating Community, and 8) Persistence.
520 $a The methodology for this research study was a Mixed Methods Research Approach. The quantitative section compared student successful course completion and persistence before and after an intervention: the addition of two project assignments---an Educational Development Plan and a Personal Vision Plan.
520 $a Community college leaders can benefit by including in their curriculum offerings coursework proven to enhance persistence. Persistence is required for students to ultimately reach graduation/completion, and thus, persistence is required for the nation to reach the mandated completion rates. Teaching and learning the lessons of an entrepreneurial mindset is key to reclaiming the dream.
