A
Campus Definition of Academic Advising: Advising
is a dynamic relationship between a student and advisor. At the center is
a shared responsibility for a coherent education plan that incorporates
personal, social, academic and career considerations. Advising focuses on
helping student identify life goals, acquire skills and attitudes that
promote intellectual growth, and become academically successful. A motion to recommend this definition of academic
advising was made (Godfrey) and seconded (Olson); 9 in favor, 0 opposed, 1
abstention; Motion carried. |
