One of the things that caught my attention is the mission of student affairs. Student affairs exist to serve the needs of students, to foster the academic success and personal development of students, and to create campus environments that support the educational mission of collegiate institutions. To accomplish this mission, several organizational models have been developed.
As I read the assigned chapters, I concentrated more on the way that any of the cited models accomplished the mission of student affairs. It is very easy to focus on the models and not on the mission itself. The effectiveness of any model should be determined by how well the model has accomplished the mission of student affairs.
I also believe that human capital must be well trained and supported in order for that mission to be accomplished. I agree that “human capital is the greatest asset of any student affairs division.
