Functional Areas and Institution Types Project
This assignment will give students the opportunity to increase their familiarity with Student Affairs functional areas as they exist at various institution types and to develop their practitioner thinking skills.
Students will select three different functional areas and investigate how each of these functional areas are organized and serve students at a community college, a four-year institution, and a distance education institution. Compare and contrast how these areas are organized across these three institution types and how they provide services to students at each of these different campuses. If the functional area does not exist at an institution, explain how these services are otherwise provided to students. If the services are not provided at all, then devise and recommend ways that these “services” could be provided to students. The professor must approve the selected functional areas and institutions during week 2. Produce 20-minute presentation on your findings and recommendations. NOTE: There will be NO ADDITIONAL 10-page paper for this assignment.
Functional areas from which to select three units are:
Counseling and Psychological Services
Residence Life
Recreation
Student Conduct
Athletics
Admissions
Financial Aid
Orientation
Student Activities
Student Government
Health Services
Campus Safety
Disability Services
Greek Life
Multicultural Affairs
Veteran Resources
The LGBTQ Center
Career Services
Academic Advising
The Women’s Center
Be sure to research the institutions’ websites and even email and/or call the departments’ administrators for information so plan accordingly to complete this assignment in timely manner.
These headings should be covered in your presentation:
Discussion of why you selected the three functional areas and the three sets of institution types (community colleges, four-year institutions, and distance education institutions) for each area for your project.
Descriptions of each of the functional areas, the students they serve, their purpose, and how they contribute to the missions of these institutions and to student learning and success.
Demonstration of how social justice and inclusion is recognized and addressed in culture of the functional area and institutions and the impact is has on the learning environments.
If an institution does not have a selected functional area then devise and recommend a way these “services” could be provided to students, either directly or indirectly.
References, at least 10, should be listed on the final slide using accurate American Psychological Association (APA) formatting. Research references should be included throughout the presentation and should follow accurate American Psychological Association (APA) formatting. (Due: Week 7)
