Special Presentation - 'From Z to A in the Age of iXR'

As existing and emerging disruptions impact American higher education, student affairs educators must revise their methodologies to fulfill their central roles for the teaching and service missions of their institutions. Student affairs educators have long anticipated the results of new research about market-and-student-driven disruptions: consumerism, mental/emotional/physical health patterns, technology, macroeconomics, population demographics and political expectations. In this interactive presentation sponsored by MSU's Office of the Provost and Executive Vice President, key disruptive factors will be (re)introduced with discussions forecasting the necessary adaptations in student affairs and in higher education administration.
