  9. Dialogue Using the four-factor model for student success presented by Dr. Dembo, discuss how you would “diagnose” the problem presented in the following scenario. What interventions might you suggest along the four dimensions of this approach to improve the situation? “We have an excellent support program for under-prepared students at our college, but I am totally frustrated because our students don’t complete their financial aid forms, they fail to sign-up for tutoring, and don’t go to the library to receive help for their research papers. If they don’t do well in a course, they simply drop out rather than find ways to improve. I don’t know what else I can do!”
