7.  While you are tracking probation students after fall grades are posted, you notice the following grades for one of your new first year advisees:  CUM GPA 1.75  CO150: C  PSYCH100: D  SPCM100: B  CHEM103: F  During Preview last summer you learned that Patrick is from a rural community and graduated with a class of 30 students. He had average grades and ACT scores, and was very involved with sports, student government and theatre. When you met with him in October, he told you that everything was fine and you have not met with him, or heard from him since.

8.  With a 1.75 GPA, you will want to speak with Patrick about his situation before advising for fall registration. You contact him, but he procrastinates until close to his registration time. When he comes in for his appointment he seems a little confused about why you want to have a conversation with him, since everything is going fine this semester. He is considering a psychology major and has not yet passed the MPE. And, by the way, he tells you he just got in trouble in the Residence Halls.  What issues need to be addressed?  What questions would you ask?  How would you assist the student in becoming more academically successful?
