  1. Powerful Partnerships: How Student Life & Leadership Collaborates with Faculty to Engage Critical Thinking in Our Students Erin Senack Coordinator, Student Life & Leadership, Tarpon Springs Advisor, Student Government Association, Tarpon Springs Adjunct Faculty, Communications Department

  2. Good practice in student affairs engages students in active learning. Opportunities include experiential learning such as: Student government Collective decision making on educational issues Field-based learning such as internships Peer instruction Community service International study

  3. Good practice in student affairs helps students develop coherent values and ethical standards. Good student affairs practice provides opportunities for students, faculty, staff, and student affairs educators to demonstrate the values that define a learning community. Effective learning communities are committed to justice, honesty, equality, civility, freedom, dignity, and responsible citizenship.

  4. Good practice in student affairs sets and communicates high expectations for learning. Expectations should address the wide range of student behaviors associated with academic achievement, intellectual and psychosocial development, and individual and community responsibility.

  5. Good practice in student affairs uses systematic inquiry to improve student and institutional performance. Good practice in student affairs occurs when student affairs educators ask, "What are students learning from our programs and services, and how can their learning be enhanced?" Knowledge of and ability to analyze research about students and their learning are critical components of good student affairs practice.

  6. Good practice in student affairs uses resources effectively to achieve institutional missions and goals. Effective student affairs divisions are responsible stewards of their institutions' financial and human resources. They use principles of organizational planning to create and improve learning environments throughout the campus that emphasize institutions' desired educational outcomes for students.

  7. Good practice in student affairs forges educational partnerships that advance student learning. Partners for learning include students, faculty, academic administrators, staff, and others inside and outside the institution. Collaboration involves all aspects of the community in the development and implementation of institutional goals and reminds participants of their common commitment to students and their learning.

  8. Good practice in student affairs builds supportive and inclusive communities. Student learning occurs best in communities that value diversity, promote social responsibility, encourage discussion and debate, recognize accomplishments, and foster a sense of belonging among their members. Good student affairs practice cultivates supportive environments by encouraging connections between students, faculty, and student affairs practitioners.
