Title: From Proto to Professionalized: Constructing Historical Narratives of 20th Century Academic Advising
Lead Presenter: Wojciech Beltkiewicz
Date: December 31, 1969    Time: 6:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Room:
Abstract: Using primary source documents and images, this research project adopts a longue-duree approach to the history of academic advising at a midwestern public flagship university, from its inception to eventual professionalization. The profession of academic advising has undergone significant changes over the course of the twentieth century. This project will put them in conversation with key political, economic as well demographic developments, while outlining how academic advising sough to mitigate historical biases and inequalities in access to higher education.

It will also demonstrate that historical narratives of our profession are fundamental to understanding how modern academic advising came to be, how it evolved in reaction to changing circumstances, and perhaps most importantly, how these pasts shape our understanding of who we are as advisors today.
