In these days when every college or university needs to make the
best use of resources, Student Affairs for Academic Administrators
is intended to help academic administrators make the best use of
one vital campus resource: student affairs. By providing this
concise introduction to student affairs as a discipline and a
profession, the authors of this volume provide a foundation for
working together to improve the student experience and enhance
learning. Since academic administrators typically come up through
the faculty ranks, they are unlikely to have a good grasp of what
their student affairs colleagues bring to the common work of
education. To provide a better understanding, the chapters in this
volume cover topics such as: The history of student affairs, and
functions typically associated with student affairs divisions
Current thinking and research in student development theory
Theoretical constructs underlying contemporary student affairs
practice (and ways to employ these theories in academic
administration Diversity issues and their impact on student
outcomes in the collegiate environment. After a chapter on how to
build successful collaborations between academic affairs and
student affairs, two final chapters explore specific examples of
how such collaborations work in practice: Academic honor codes, and
undergraduate research. While written for academic administrators,
the book also provides valuable insights for those in student
affairs seeking to improve understanding and facilitate
collaboration with colleagues in academic affairs.
