About this book
This edited collection explores diverse perspectives about today's college students from a variety of higher education stakeholders – including faculty, researchers, policymakers, administrators, parents, and students themselves. All too often, those concerned with higher education make assumptions based on outdated information; the voices in this volume provide a grounded and real understanding of college students and explore how we might better support them in our colleges and universities. Each section includes a series of essays, with a culminating chapter written by scholars who analyze, contextualize, and ground these perspectives in theory. Multiple Perspectives on College Students brings current data and experience to light in a way that helps readers understand the needs and opportunities for supporting all college students for success.
