Title: Won't You Be My Savior: Alleviating the Burden of Advisor Vacancies
Lead Presenter: Shannon Saavedra
Date: December 31, 1969    Time: 6:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Room:
Abstract: The burden of advisor vacancies can be felt institution-wide. Advisors and supervisors must absorb new advisees on short notice into their existing advisement and administrative duties. We are using a new approach to vacancies by hiring newly graduated professionals who are passionate about careers in Higher Education but currently lack experience. These Professional Interns are trained to serve as academic advisors in any college at our institution, lessening their burden by providing student support during high-traffic times while they seek to hire new advisors. Attendees of this session will leave with an understanding of how to incorporate Professional Interns into their own institution to ease the burden of vacancies.
