“Unintended consequences are often a part of office hours visits. These consequences are usually very positive. Stopping by office hours allows the professor to get to know the student better and provides an opportunity for him or her to better understand the needs of that student and how best to address them.”

• General Suggestions– Don’t give students all of the answers. Have them do the work!– Challenge them to come to advising prepared.– Make them aware of what they have in their own corner and how they can use it.– Turn cultural differences into assets.– Treat each student as students who can reach their full potential.– In crisis, ask probing questions but still leave decision to the student. Calm them and get them to
laugh. – Refer students to speak with instructors; other departments (i.e. financial aid, admissions, etc).
• Having students learn to do things for themselves, even though it takes more time– Some of this comes with experience and comfort level in one’s own position.
• Group Advising:– Orientation: DARS (Degree Audit) Training– Major Planning Workshop for various concentrations– Graduation Workshop (Last two quarters + grad app)
• One-on-one advising:– Show resources online; have them do research; have them do their own DARS; have them update
their own requirement sheet.– Walk them through finding academic regulations. Introduce them to tools such as online catalogs
and Registrar’s published policies.– Teach them how to write a good email
• Academic Orientation:– Be your own advocate and locate resources.
• New student sessions – Do your best– Show up!– Seek help
• Leveraging Technology– Send weekly advising emails with tips on resources, events, etc.– Use websites and blogs, post tips on Facebook
