Ashley Tull, Linda Kuk, Paulette Dalpes
R3,892 Discovery Miles 38 920 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

In addressing the unique issues related to the delivery of student services in the community college setting, this book fills a longstanding need to provide practitioners with a contextual framework for their work. Starting by providing the historical context to the development of student affairs in community colleges, this handbook describes the organization of key functions and current practice, and looks at the specific constraints, opportunities, changes and future challenges that practitioners face. Community colleges are grappling with: the realities of shrinking resources; an increasingly diverse and disparate student body, with many attending part-time; demands for greater accountability; a generational change in leadership; and pressures to expand their missions as well as adopt educational technology - all of which have an impact on the role of student affairs. Among the topics covered are: Partnering with Academic Affairs; Financing Student Affairs; Legal and Policy Issues; Strategic Planning and Assessment; Accreditation and Accountability; Technology for Communication and Engagement; Academic Support Services; Student Life and Student Engagement Programs and Services; Enrollment Management; and Services for Special Populations. This handbook is intended for student affairs administrators and professionals at all stages of their careers, as well as for students in graduate preparation programs.

New Realities in the Management of Student Affairs - Emerging Specialist Roles and Structures for Changing Times (Hardcover):... New Realities in the Management of Student Affairs - Emerging Specialist Roles and Structures for Changing Times (Hardcover)
Ashley Tull, Linda Kuk
R3,880 Discovery Miles 38 800 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Student affairs organisations are at a crossroads. They face expanding enrolments; a concomitant increase need for often more complex services; changing demographics; a growing cohort of non-traditional and first-generation students; shifting and more demanding responsibilities; and increased expectations from the greater campus community, parents, and external constituents. These challenges are intensified by the accelerating speed of advancements in technology, globalisation, innovation, and student consumerism; and by the long-term reality of shrinking resources, and limitations on the ability to increase tuition and fees. This book shares alternative ideas about organisational design, and about ways to restructure roles and responsibilities to enable student affairs organisations to respond to these challenges and demands more effectively at a time of reduced resources. It also addresses the many emerging roles that student affairs organisations are increasingly being expected to address - such as IT, fund raising and development, external communications, human resources management and professional development, as well as research and assessment - and describes approaches developed by a variety of institutions. The contributors also pay attention to the solutions appropriate for smaller institutions, and for community colleges. They explore the various dimensions of change and offer frameworks to help student affairs leaders and practitioners to more effectively understand and manage the changes they are confronting; and describe ideas and solutions adopted by others within the profession.
