Abstract
Student affairs (SA) professionals have advanced from being generalists to specialists. Protivnak, Paylo, and Mercer (2013) discussed the perceived value of counselor preparation by functional area. We pose that counseling skills are used by student affairs professionals across a variety of functional areas.

The majority of participants indicated that counseling skills are indispensable.
