"Renowned as a leading practitioner and voice of wisdom and reason,
Annie Grant now shares her insight with those who are still on
their professional journey within the higher education student
experiential services through her writing. I commend this book to
everyone who works in, or wants to really understand, the world of
higher education in the UK today." -Jayne Aldridge, Chairperson of
AMOSSHE, The Student Services Organisation 2017-2021, and Director
for the Student Experience, University of Sussex, UK This book
examines the aspirations, challenges and experiences of
contemporary university students through the eyes and ears of those
who provide professional advisory services. Providing an overview
of the growth of the UK higher education sector in general and that
of student advisory provision in particular, the author highlights
the breadth and depth of the role that professional advisory staff
now play in the higher education landscape. The volume addresses
student academic and career success and their wellbeing, stressing
the importance of understanding and respecting the diversity of the
student body. In doing so, it emphasises the value of envisioning
universities as inclusive and safe communities that challenge
discrimination, prejudice and bullying, and the importance of
proactive initiatives that help students to develop self-confidence
and resilience. The author addresses other important but less
frequently discussed matters, such as the impact of the
marketization of higher education, alcohol and drug abuse and the
ethical and moral values of higher education.
