About the Book

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.

Review :
“This book includes chapters on several sub-areas not often seen in the literature directed toward student affairs professionals: Partnering with Academic Affairs; Legal and Policy Issues; and Accreditation and Accountability. It should be required reading for practitioners and students in preparations programs.” Florence B. Brawer (1922-2014) Research Director of the Center for the Study of Community Colleges from its inception in 1974 "The bulk of the Handbook is a review of what we understand about students and practices of student affairs in four-year colleges and universities. What is significant is that so many of the theories and practices apply to community colleges as well because many of the students have the same characteristics, and for those areas where there might be questions about whether or not some unique aspects of community colleges might call for a different perspective or action, the areas for needed research are clear and poised for study. This pioneering work fills a void in the literature about the work of student affairs and should be on the bookshelf of every student affairs professional. This Handbook paints with primary colors the complexity of the various missions and responsibilities of community colleges and the critical role of student affairs in the success of the most diverse students in higher education. This Handbook is an excellent resource for those considering a career in student affairs in community colleges." Gwen Dungy, Executive Director Emeritus NASPA "Community colleges are indeed the community's college. With their open admissions role and increased national, state, and local mandates for greater student retention, persistence, and completion, they are today - more than ever - expected to perform at a high level to serve the most diverse of student populations. The Handbook for Student Affairs in the Community College provides a comprehensive framework of the strengths and challenges facing community colleges of all types. The Handbook serves as an insightful blueprint for success, relying on the learnings from a historical past in order to impact a successful future." Diana M. Doyle, Ph.D., President Arapahoe Community College
