Wednesday April 30, 2025 11:15am - 12:15pm EDT
Hammock
This study found a positive correlation between attendance and academic performance after implementing an 80% attendance policy. Faculty reported improved teaching dynamics, though students raised concerns about autonomy. Further evaluation, including Step 1 outcomes, will assess the long-term impact and applicability to other institutions.
