This special issue provides what is perhaps the best - - most concise, most accessible, and most contextually relevant - - introduction to the work of Vincent Tinto. Tinto is one of the great theorists in Student Affairs, having contributed immensely to our understanding of the impact of the university environment, institutional culture, etc. on student 'drop-out', student retention and ultimately student success.
