Advancement, enrollment, student success, and career services each hold a fragment of the same person. Latte reads across all of them and does the work, with your approval on every write.
Board packet, fall meetingBanner · Slate · Raiser's Edge NXT
Build the fall board packet: persistence, completion by aid package, and application volume.
Pulled from Banner, Slate, and Raiser's Edge NXT and reconciled to census dates, so all three offices are counting the same students. Every figure links back to the query that produced it.
Institutional overviewFall 2026 · census18,340 students
The completion gap. Merit students finish 22 points ahead of Pell students, but Pell students who also get institutional aid finish at 79%, so the driver is packaging rather than preparation. I can pull that cohort and the aid history behind it.
Ask across Banner, Slate, Raiser's Edge NXT, Handshake…
Your systems need an interior for each other.
The SIS knows a student. The CRM knows a donor. The career platform knows an alum. Nothing in the stack knows they are the same person, so the work of joining them falls on staff.

Programs no one office could run.
Mentorship, career pathways, retention outreach, parent giving. The work that spans departments is the work that never gets done, because assembling it by hand takes a term. Latte assembles it, sends it, and keeps the check-ins going after that.
