Böcker av Virginia N. Gordon

The history of Mortar Board members and their accomplishments provides readers with a unique window into women's issues on campuses during the twentieth century, the importance of college student organisations to the quality of student life, and the effect of world events on American college students.

Advising has evolved as a critical function because of the increasing complexity of curricula, the competitiveness of the job market, and the changing nature of the student population. The literature on academic advising has consequently proliferated during the past decade, and this book provides valuable guidance in that area.

The increase in diverse student populations and the growing complexity of higher education have made academic advising a critical component of student success.
