- W181013669 abstract "Is the traditional framework for student getting creaky? Consider these varied paradigms within which to plan the future of student affairs. Introduction Student affairs is ever-evolving; old paradigms are replaced with new. Yet old frameworks live on. Like the paradoxical anchor, sometimes there is benefit, as history can ground the future; sometimes there is detriment, as old notions weigh down the field and impede progress. The challenge, of course, is to carry forward the best of that which defines us while not being unduly burdened by vestiges of the past. The purpose of this article is to frame-and reframe-the work of student affairs within today's institutions. Preliminary Framework Student affairs' is largely a 20th-century construction that can trace its roots back to functions present at the beginning of American higher education. As higher education evolved and self-discovery and values clarification took priority over values inculcation, the purpose of student affairs also evolved. (Of course, higher education, as it attempts to find the appropriate balance along the social reproduction/social change continuum, is not values-free.) The initial framework used by higher education to define the institution-student relationship and manage student behavior, in loco parentis, continued well into the 20th century. However, as administrative and faculty roles became increasingly specialized, administrative processes became more complex, and expanding student populations became more diverse (with the infusion of women, veterans, and students of color), the role of student affairs emerged and evolved.2 Post-World War II, the role of student personnel workers and deans of men and women became more institutionalized and specialized. By the 1960s, the role of vice president for student services/affairs was in place as a defined institutional function. Yet, at its core, the mission of student affairs described in The Student Personnel Point of View, 1937 remains: the development of the whole student-not just intellectual capacity-as necessary for achieving personal potential and the betterment of society (Estanek 1999; Komives and Woodard 2003; Saddlemire and Rentz 1986). Many of the current notions regarding the work of student affairs, particularly those held as a result of college and professional experiences, may not take into account the evolution of the field. Before the 1970s, student affairs largely used a services framework to address a growing array of student needs based on a holistic, human development philosophy. To be sure, today student affairs is still home to many familiar service areas, programs, and facilities. However, over time, societal changes, governmental regulations, and evolving principles of social equity and justice have created a demand for expanded offerings to both serve a diverse student body within a safe and inclusive campus community and support additional learning opportunities to prepare students to lead in a global society. Even these represent only some spokes of the ever-expanding student affairs functional umbrella. More importantly, this functional lens offers only one circumscribed view of the work embedded within a direct service framework. Frameworks have changed dramatically over time; indeed, student affairs has now embraced a much larger mission than might have been imagined possible in 1937. Mapping Student Affairs Paradigms: Form Follows Function Initially, one might be inclined to speak of student affairs as a collection of activities. This, however, risks fundamentally confusing form with function. One way in which student affairs is distinguished as a profession is its grounding in theory and research that informs practice; practice then informs research and theory in an iterative cycle of knowledge-building3 (Upcraft 1994). It is within this context that the evolving paradigms described here have been formulated. …" @default.
