Stories of Inspiration: Lessons and Laughter in Student Affairs
This Chicken Soup for the Soul-type book is a collection of short stories sure to motivate and educate student affairs professionals. The book contains the personal accounts of 43 individuals sharing 46 stories. Some stories are based on extraordinary events such as a student’s death or a campus crisis, while others are based in the day-to-day interactions student affairs educators have with students during conduct hearings, advising appointments, and impromptu meetings. There are also light-hearted stories detailing student antics and times when student affairs professionals point out their own foibles. These stories will remind you that each day and each interaction can make a difference.
