Abstract:
|
"Advising specific student populations can have its challenges, especially when a student's major leads to a professional program. Competitive major programs can leave students unaware of the importance of determining their next step. Students can be so determined to achieve their initial goal they are resistant to having exploratory major conversations. Advisors are often the first stop in helping students match their abilities with a major that complements their strengths. In this session, attendees will have the opportunity to engage with other advisors who experience the same challenges. Presenters will share how using effective programming and communication strategies have helped students write a new ending to their story.
