For student affairs educators, administrators, and faculty looking to use the standards to develop, revamp, or generally improve student learning, programs, and services, the CAS Professional Standards and the CAS Self-Assessment Guides are often the go-to resource. Published earlier this year, the first companion guide to the CAS Standards, Using the CAS Professional Standards: Diverse Examples of Practice provides real-life case studies written by practitioners who have successfully applied the standards in their work. The book is the first joint publication of NASPA, CAS, and ACPA.On this episode of Student Affairs Live, host Heather Shea extends the conversation beyond the basics of CAS to discuss and how student affairs educators might employ these foundational standards within various student affairs functional areas to improve practice. Joining Heather are editors and chapter authors, Dr. Laura Dean, Dr. Shannon Dean, Dr. Yancey Gulley, Alex Lange, and Dr. Jen Wells.
The beginnings of the professional field now known as student affairs can be traced to 1890 at Harvard University when then President Charles Eliot “asked LeBaron Russell Briggs, a young and popular English instructor, to serve as a ‘student dean’... to look after undergraduates” (Sandeen, 2004, p. 30). Later Deans of Men and Deans of Women were foundational in the professionalization of the field and the establishment of practices for higher education student services. They also formed professional associations, influenced early research on students, and urged the academy to consider the “whole student.” In short, what is now known as the Dean of Students could be considered the quintessential student affairs role.Today, much in the higher education landscape has shifted and the Dean of Students may be more central than ever. As compared to previous Deans, on many college and university campuses today's Dean of Students is now: responsible for addressing a more complex set of student concerns,beholden to new constituencies on and off campus, and experiencing oversight within a more strict regulatory and legal context.On this episode of Student Affairs Live, host Heather Shea will discuss with a large panel of current and recent Deans of Students how and why the Dean of Students role has changed and the leadership skills and professional competencies present-day Deans of Students need to be successful in this multifaceted role. Joining Heather to discuss the shifting responsibilities of this complex position are Craig Chatriand, Tim Gordon, Paul Shang, Kendal Washington White, and Lee Burdette Williams.
The aftermath of the 2016 Presidential Election has been felt on our college campuses. Nearly a month after Election Day, campuses remain locations where dialogue, engagement, political action, and student activism are all in a pivotal moment. This election has brought about concerns about safety balanced against a need to engage in conversation across difference. In what ways are campuses providing space for reflection, self-care, and dialogue simultaneously? How does online/social media platforms affect student political learning and promote dialogue (or stifle debate)?On this episode of Student Affairs Live, host Heather Shea Gasser connects with panelists to discuss these questions and more related to the aftermath of the 2016 election. Joining Heather are Dr. Cassie Barnhardt, Dr. Adam Gismondi, Alex Lange, Dr. Sam Museus, and Dr. Julie Payne-Kirchmeier.
Building and maintaining strong working relationships between campus police departments and student affairs divisions is critical today, perhaps more than ever before. Partnerships focused on ensuring campus safety and preparing effectively for crises are among the top priorities for proactive collaboration between these two campus units. Yet, the impact of systemic racism in our larger society, combined with a student’s experience and knowledge of law enforcement behaviors from their hometowns, all influence students’ perception of campus police and their level of comfort with presence of law enforcement in their academic environment. On this episode of Student Affairs Live, host Heather Shea Gasser connects with four individuals who have effectively built partnerships on their campuses to learn about strategies. Joining Heather to discuss this topic are Kendal Washington White, Brian Seastone, Rachel Aho, and Florene McGlothian-Taylor (please read their detailed bios below).

We've invited them back to appear on Student Affairs Live and share what their first year was like as new professionals in student affairs. What challenges did they face? What do they wish they would have known in grad school? What is their outlook on student affairs now that they are in the profession full time? On this episode, Student Affairs Live host Heather Shea Gasser connects with five returning guests who have all finished their first year working in Student Affairs to learn more about their transition from#SAGrad to #SApro. Joining Heather are Andrea De Leon from St. John's University, Matt Fenstermaker from Oregon State University, Jarvis McCowin from SUNY Broome, Gabby Porcaro from the University of North Carolina at Asheville, and Jasmine Scott from The Ohio State University.
