Advising Goals to help students

1)    Help our students find the resources to help them.

2)    Provide accurate information to students, staying abreast of curriculum changes and rules and regulations.

3)    Integration of advising with career planning - helping students see the connection between their skills and interests and the requirements for a particular career.

4)    Explain to students the meaning and purpose of a college education beyond career preparation.  By advisors doing their jobs well, we can help students see that education is more than "job training."

5)    Listen to students.  Being a good listener contributes a great deal to being a good advisor and being a good student.

6)    `Establish relationships with students.  A  caring advisor who gets to know advisees is one who has the opportunity to have a positive impact on students lives - one they will remember long after their college days are over.
