TEACHING, ADVISING, AND STUDENT DEVELOPMENT: FINDING THE COMMON GROUND
This article is adapted from a chapter in Giving Advice to Students: A Roadmap for College Professionals, * by Howard K. Schein, Ned Scott Laff, and Deborah R. Allen. It will appear in the summer 1987 edition of American College Personnel Association Media Publication No. 44, published by the American Association of Counseling and Development. Inthis adaptation, the authors offer root concepts and critical thinking skills as the solution—the “common ground”—to the disparate interests and concerns of academic affairs and student affairs professionals. Further, it provides the academic advisor with a variety of advising strategies to assist advisees in learning how to make well-informed decisions about their future.
