Student Affairs: Voices From the Profession

by Steven Tolman (Editor), Daniel W. Calhoun (Editor)

Overview

We have identified 10 timely topics that are important to the profession of student affairs. Each of these topics will be a chapter within the book and will include: (1) an academic/scholarly introduction to that topic (i.e., an abridged introduction/literature review that will provide the context for that topic/chapter), (2) perspectives on that topic from seasoned and new student affairs professionals, and (3) perspective from a HE/SA faculty member.

This book will be geared toward graduate students in HIED Programs and new(er) professionals in student affairs. This book will be used within HE/SA graduate programs, departments/divisions to use as a common read for their staff, and individuals reading it to further their understanding of higher education administration. The strength of this book is that it will scaffold the topic in the academic literature while providing several perspectives on the same topic/chapter.
