Student Success Summit

January 26, 2027

The 2027 LSU Student Success Summit brings together faculty, staff, and campus partners from across LSU for a day of connection, collaboration, and shared learning focused on advancing student success.

Join colleagues from across the university to exchange ideas, explore innovative practices, and strengthen the programs, partnerships, and strategies that help LSU students thrive.

 


 

new for 2027

Faculty Track

New this year, the Student Success Summit will feature a dedicated Faculty Track designed specifically around teaching, learning, and student success.

Faculty-led breakout sessions will explore the topics, challenges, and opportunities most relevant to the classroom experience while giving faculty the opportunity to share practical strategies, learn from colleagues across disciplines, and build connections across the university.

Student Success Awards

Also new for 2027, the Student Success Awards will recognize the people, programs, initiatives, and practices making a meaningful difference in the lives of LSU students.

These awards celebrate the faculty and staff whose work—both visible and behind the scenes—strengthens the student experience and advances LSU’s commitment to student success.
