Abstract
Bernard Little has personal experience with the power that student affairs professionals have to lift people up and out of difficult beginnings. When he left “the hood in Cleveland, Ohio,” where he was raised by a single mother with six other siblings, he had $90 in his pocket that would have to last through his first semester at Bowling Green State University. There, student affairs professionals invested in him and made such a difference in his life that he went on to earn a doctorate and embarked on a career in student affairs. After 17 years working in higher education, Little recently became Vice President of Student Affairs and Diversity at Prairie State College in Chicago Heights, Illinois.
