Rubin, Sheena A. Kauppila, Jason L. Taylor, and Leanne Davis  \nSituated in the northwestern corner of Ohio, Bowling Green State University (BGSU) is an example of how, even with limited resources amidst a global pandemic, an  \nDegrees When Due (DWD) is a completion and equity initiative led by the Institute for Higher Education Policy to help states and colleges increase degree attainment among the “some college, but no degree” population. Launched in 2018, nearly 200 institutions in 23 states have joined the first three cohorts of DWD to build expertise, capacity, and infrastructure on campuses to get students back on track and across the completion finish line.  \ninstitution of higher education can integrate a datainformed degree completion effort into existing programs and institution-wide goals in order to reengage adult students, promote equitable degree attainment, and improve students’workforce outcomes.  \nBGSU is a residential four-year university with a vibrant campus culture, NCAA athletics, and over 200 undergraduate and graduate programs across eight academic colleges.  \nBGSU serves an undergraduate population that one BGSU administrator characterized as “first time, full-time, direct from high school, and going to live in the residence hall students.” But even with the focus on enrolling recent highschool graduates, BGSU has distinguished itself through the creation of programs and policies that serve veterans and active-duty service members as well as the surrounding community, including being named fifth in the nation and first in the Midwest as “Best for Vets” by Military Times.  \nABOUT BOWLING GREEN UNIVERSITY  \nLOCATION  \nBOWLING GREEN, OH  \nNote:Undergraduate enrollment and degrees conferred are averaged over a three-year period, 2017-2019.  \nSource: Authors’ calculations using Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS), 2017-2019, Completions.  \nGENERAL INFORMATION  \n PUBLIC  \nFOUR-YEAR  \nINSTITUTION TYPE  \n 14,880  \nUNDERGRADUATE ENROLLMENT  \n 2 ,910  \nDEGREES CONFERRED ANNUALLY  \n1 EXPANDING PROGRAMS AND ADDRESSING BARRIERS TO SERVE MORE STUDENTS WITH SOME COLLEGE , BUT NO DEGREE | BOWLING GREEN UNIVERSITY  \nIn May 2019, BGSU established the first partnership between a public four-year university in Ohio and the Community College of the Air Force’s (CCAF) General Education Mobile (GEM) program to create pathways for GEM graduates to complete bachelor’s degrees within four years.1 This partnership was an addition to three existing, fully online degree programs at BGSU for CCAF graduates through the university’s eCampus. BGSU’s eCampus also enrolls non-military affiliated students and offers over 40 distance learning programs that culminate in degrees and certificates through partially and fully online modalities, creating significant flexibility for students to pursue their educational goals.  \nThese degree completion opportunities, along with robust student services such as the Nontraditional and Military Student Services (NTMSS) unit, have helped BGSU establish itself as a leader in supporting today’s students. NTMSSplayed a critical role during BGSU’s participation in the Degrees When Due (DWD) initiative. Barbara Henry, assistant vice president for nontraditional and military student services, who leads the NTMSS office, served as the DWD campus team lead and her division’s expertise was critical to BGSU’s DWD work.  \nThis case study offers insights into how a public four-year research university integrated a new initiative into existing programs and institution-wide goals to maximize outcomes for students, while dealing with depleted resources due to impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.  \nCredits: Nontraditional and Military Student Services Staff  \nWHAT MOTIVATED  \nPARTICIPATIO","cbCaimqTqh5WTKn2","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimqTqh5WTKn2","pdf",8283984,12,"English","# About Bowling Green University\n## Location\n## General Information\n# Expanding Programs and Addressing Barriers\n## Partnership with CCAF GEM\n## Nontraditional and Military Student Services (NTMSS)\n# What Motivated Participation in DWD?\n## Educational Attainment and Workforce Needs","[{\"question\":\"What is Degrees When Due (DWD) and why did BGSU participate?\",\"answer\":\"DWD is a completion and equity initiative aimed at increasing degree attainment for adults with some college but no degree.
