Life Made Easier for the Over‐Thirty Undergrads

It is predicted that the increased adult enrollment in higher education institutions will continue. Thus, colleges and universities are faced with special challenges from the emerging recognition of adult students. The purpose of this descriptive, exploratory study was to examine how over‐thirty undergraduate students perceived their experiences of returning to college. From learning about adults and their experiences, an assessment of their needs for student personnel services and educational programs was made.

Technology and student services personnel: Current use and future applications

AbstractWhereas the late 1960s and the 1970s have been a period of new developments, experimentation, and increasing technological innovation in student services, the 1980s should prove to be an exciting period of technological refinement and expanded application.

PRIORITY FOR FUTURE ROLE ACTIVITIES OF COUNSELORS IN MICHIGAN COMMUNITY COLLEGES

The rationale adopted for this study identified the need to implement new directions in community college counselor programs. Few of the literature references supporting the stand for new directions had a sound research base. The purpose of this study was to survey three role definer groups (counselor educators, community college administrators, and counselors) to discover what they perceived as the probable and preferred priority of future counselorrole activities for established and emerging delivery approaches in counseling and student personnel services in Michigan community colleges. Since no special survey existed which could measure and compare reactions by role definers to the established and emerging counselor role activities, a survey had to be constructed and validated for this experiment. The 20 items on the survey were designed to elicit the degree of probable and preferred priority given to the two roles in Michigan within the next S to 10 years. The role definers were also asked to pick the...

Personality Growth among Counselor Trainees as Measured by the Personal Orientation Dimensions

This study was designed to examine changes in level of actualizing among counselor trainees at the Master's degree level as measured by the Personality Orientation Dimensions (POD), following the next-to-the-last course in Counseling and Student Personnel Services. Differences between pretest and posttest raw scores were significant for 4 of 13 POD scales. All changes were in the direction of hypothesized greater actualizing. It was concluded that the POD was sensitive to changes following the present counselor training program and that the changes suggest a greater adherence to actualizing concepts following such a program—an outcome that could be interpreted as reflecting some degree of support for its potential construct validity.

Staff Development Needs of Public Community College Department/Division Chairpersons

Abstract No administrative position appears to be more pivotal in facilitating grassroots change in the community college than that of the department or division chairperson. However, no one, until the present effort, has systematically assessed two-year college chairpersons to determine what they perceive their staff development needs to be. The results of the present study indicate that preservice and inservice training received by chairpersons was generally nominal, and that self-improvement activity appears weak. Further, the respondents reported extensive and serious needs related to knowledge of the community college, managerial skills, personnel matters, administrative matters, curriculum and instruction, student personnel services, and some 18 other possible training needs ranging from the law and higher education to the effective use of a secretary. Chairpersons were also asked to indicate what they consider to be the most convenient times and conditions for inservice training. They suggest that they would seek out substantially more training than they do if better funding, time, and site configurations were made available. Finally, concrete recommendations are made to increase the availability of training of two-year college chairpersons.

Attitudes of Black and of White College Students Toward Student Personnel Services

The black American college student of the sixties may be regarded as one of the most militant in the history of higher education. Lyons1 points out that this militancy has led to change in the nature of the institutions of higher learning. He noted increases in the development of Afro-American cultural centers and black student organizations on predominantly white student populated campuses. Jones2 found that black students who attended predominantly white institutions are less happy socially and feel more alienated than their black counterparts on predominantly black student populated campuses. However, he found that these black students had more self-esteem. In support of Jones's findings, Willie and Levy3 also found that the majority of the black students attending predominantly white institutions live in self enforced segregation. These opinions have definite implications for student personnel administrators in that the felt alienation of black students could be related to the extent to which the personnel services meet their needs and to their attitudes toward these services when they comprise a minority of the student body. In other words, are the student personnel services more responsive to the majority of the student body and do these services neglect the feelings of the minor-

Student personnel services in the university without walls

With the growth of the university without walls, or the open university, a new and expanded role can be in the making for the student personnel professional. This professional's expanded functions should center around outreach services that are necessary for the special groups the open university can serve. An active role for the student personnel professional should become a reality within the nontraditional university.
