Abstract:
|
"According to the National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA), more than 460,000 student-athletes participate in 24 NCAA-governed sports every year. Academic Advisors, Athletic Advisors, and Athletic Administrative staff at NCAA member institutions offer academic support and guidance to this large, unique student population.
This session, 'From Touchdowns to Textbooks: Life Stories in Advising Student-Athletes', is comprised of experienced members of the Academic Advising, Athletic Advising, and Athletic Administration communities at institutions of varying levels of NCAA competition. Presenters will share with attendees their life stories in working with student-athletes, offer insight into their approaches to advising, and share strategies for helping students navigate the complex intersections between athletic participation and academic success. Through participation in this session, audience members will work to develop the relational, informational, and conceptual competencies needed to support student-athletes.
