In this essay, I first reflect on the theoretical and practical importance of Tinto’s insights. I then summarise the three lessons that Tinto offers and pull from a recent study of the role of state policies in improving student outcomes to offer additional perspective on these lessons. I conclude with a brief statement about the benefits of cross-national examinations of a common question: How do we promote college student success
