Abstract:
There is increasing evidence that the student populations around the world are changing and diversifying. but as these student populations are increasing, so too are the problems related to students'success. Getting more students into the system and getting greater diversity of students means that universities have had a re-look at their policies on the access and on coping with different studnet needs.Apart from curriculum changes tht have accompanied the broader changes in the unversity growing studnet population, there have also been significant moves beyond the classroom.This summary will look at three major topics that were addressed in the symposium: first of all, the kind of services that student affairs can offer; second, the role of professionals within student services; and the last, the kind of challenges that face student services.
