By ROBIN WILSON

hen Tyler Anderson spoke to first-year stu- Wdents at Grinnell College this fall about the institution’s policy on sexual consent, he acknowl- edged that asking for a partner’s approval during sex may seem un- natural. Grinnell’s two-year-old policy, which is similar to the hotly debated STUDENTS one just adopted in California, requires students to gain “affirmative consent” from partners in all sexual interactions. The goal is to stop sexual assault and create a common understanding of what constitutes consensual sexual contact. “The common misconception of affirmative consent is that you are stopping before you do something and looking at your partner and they will have a placard saying, ‘Yes, keep going,’ or ‘No, don’t,’ ” Mr. Anderson, a junior, says he told students during freshman orientation. “But that’s really not how it works.” How it works is usually more subtle, says Mr. Anderson, who is a catcher on the college’s baseball AURELIUSXV, WIKIMEDIA COMMONS team and a member of a new col- A two-year-old policy at Grinnell College requires students to gain “affirmative consent” from partners in all sexual interactions. lege task force aimed at preventing sexual misconduct and substance abuse.

HElP uS PREVENT

A “SuPERBuG” EPIdEMIC?

BRYAN BERGER IS BuIldING A NEw lINE of dEfENSE. Infections caused by drug-resistant “superbug” bacteria have become an increasingly menacing reality. These “superbugs” are often transferred to vulnerable patients through contaminated hospital equipment such as ventilators and respirators. Bryan Berger, Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering, is collaborating with the Lehigh Valley Hospital Network and local industry to develop a practical solution. By engineering proteins and designing systems that prevent bacteria from colonizing hospital equipment in the first place, these infections can be prevented—and an epidemic stopped before it can get started.

In recent years, more universities have tried to combat the sense of isolation in humanities and social-science programs, where, unlike in the physical sciences, students don’t have the lab structure that necessitates interaction with fellow students and advisers. De- partments have placed more emphasis on academic advising, to keep students on track, or have started to offer writing workshops and colloquia where students can discuss their dissertations with one another. Other factors also account for why a humanities Ph.D. may take “I wouldn’t so long.

Interim results will become available in the summer of 2015 and final results a year later. Since then, three other jurisdic- tions have launched pay-for-success projects. Many more are in the works, in fields like early-childhood services, work-force development, and pregnancy prevention. Could pay-for-success financing work for higher education? The general idea of tying financing to performance is already a subject of much discussion among colleges. Driven by growing demand for public accountability, a majority of states are now experimenting with performance-based funding for two- or four-year public colleges. In those models, states reserve some percentage of annual funds for higher education according to a performance formula decided by the legislature. Some states report positive results, with graduation rates exceeding expectations. But without a focus on graduating low-income students, colleges can achieve the desired outputs by simply changing the inputs. That is, they can select students most likely to succeed, usually those with money and college-educated parents. Moreover, those efforts do not bring in investors to cover the upfront costs, and they do not have a way to capture the longer-term savings from increased college-graduation rates and shift them into the higher-education system. Pay-for-success would work differ- ently. First, the program would provide support services to a specific cohort: those students described by Paul Tough in a recent New York Times Magazine article as “high-achieving students from low-income families who want desperately to earn a four-year degree JON KRAUSE FOR THE CHRONICLE but who run into trouble along the the chronicle of higher education | october 10, 2014 A23

Stymied on the Cusp of College

ore than a million recent high- school graduates across the country have taken the next important step in their lives by enrolling in college. All of the promises associated with a college education Mare now before them. Not so, however, for hundreds of thousands of their peers who were also accepted to college and who planned to enroll this fall but failed to. Nation- ally, 10 to 15 percent of those presumed to be headed to college do not matriculate at any postsecondary institution in the fall following high-school graduation. In urban communities, these rates are much higher: for example, 21 percent in Boston, 44 percent in Fort Worth. The young people who fail to matriculate are more often than not working in low-wage jobs with little promise for advancement. The phenomenon of faltering in the transition to college, commonly referred to among admissions offices as “summer melt,” is not new. Colleges have long factored it into their admissions models, understanding that a certain share of students whom they admit, and who intend to enroll in the fall, will not actually matriculate there. When students fail to show up, they aren’t necessarily missed, nor has their absence been of acute concern, given a prevailing assumption that the students just enrolled elsewhere. Unfortunately, the number of students each year who do not matriculate would fill Yankee Stadium more than four times over, according to our research. The heart of the issue is that these students are disproportionately first-generation and from low-income households. Socioeconomic disparities in the share of students who do not matriculate are often pronounced within communities.
