Schein, H., Laff, N.S., &
Allen, D. R. (2004). Giving advice to students: A road
map for college professionals (R. Robbins, Ed.) [Monograph
No. 11]. Manhattan, KS: National Academic Advising Association.
All members of the academic community are potential advice
givers who want to help students map their own routes.
However, many on campus frequently fail to incorporate their
implicit knowledge about the academy into the thoughts they
share with students. Giving Advice to Students
is designed to help campus professionals, especially faculty
and student affairs professionals, blend their expertise
to help students understand the underlying assumptions that
direct their education and to integrate their college experiences.
The monograph is useful as a training handbook and dialog
stimulus for professionals. Included essays can be
reproduced as tip sheets for students that can help make
campus resources readily accessible.
