This book dives into student development theory, unpacking key foundational and emergent theories of college student development while providing contemporary examples and application. Showcasing a diversity of programs, practices, and services across a variety of institutional types, Applying Student Development Theories Holistically demonstrates how professionals are intertwining the science of theory with the art of practice in multidimensional, holistic ways. Helping aspiring higher education and student affairs practitioners grasp and use theories holistically, this important text brings to life theoretical knowledge to enhance the development and learning of college and university students.
"Those of us who teach theory lack books designed for the application of those theories. This book fills that void in that it provides a text focused on this application of theories and assessment of application effectiveness."
- Tony W. Cawthon, Alumni Distinguished Professor of Leadership, Counselor Education, and Human Organization Development, Clemson University
"Many graduate students lack exposure to a diverse array of programs and application is frequently lacking in ‘theory’ textbooks ; I am pleased to see the emphasis on ‘real life’ examples in this book."
- Suzanne Maniss, Program Director, Professional Counseling and Student Affairs in Higher Education, Stephen F. Austin State University
