The authors highlight the primacy of the role of Student Affairs for the successful transition to a 21st-century higher education model.

It provides a meaningful framework to critically consider and shape the vision and mission of successful higher education models.

The book provided an environmental scan of student services practice, topics were covered by both current and emerging thought leaders in the field, a comprehensive treatment of critical challenges confronting work with college students was provided, and it served as a chief professional development manual for practitioners.
