Abstract
Universally in the United States, enrollment in institutions of higher education is on the decline. Men made up 71% of this decrease in enrollment, causing warning alarms to sound for institutions of higher education (Belkin, 2021). With the ever-decreasing number of men graduating from undergraduate institutions of higher education, it’s important to gain a better understanding of this phenomenon. This session will discuss the practical application of two research studies about males on campus.
