17 Please discuss student completion trends

The completion rate for all of these history courses is comparable to other social science programs completion rates, with the exception of HIST-111, which is somewhat higher than other courses in the SBS Division (the data collection for HIST 240 is too small to compare to other GEM 6 courses, so its 100% completion rate is not included for comparison).  As the percentage of online and Dual Credit courses has increased since the most recent program review, completion rates have increased slightly over previous years when there were larger percentages of face-to-face courses taught on campus.  Those courses had a higher attrition rate, mostly due to withdrawals, than online or Dual Credit courses taught on HS campuses.
