Praise for the Second Edition of STUDENT DEVELOPMENT IN COLLEGE
Student Development in College is a rich, comprehensive exploration of the major theoretical perspectives that inform development. The authors’ attention to nuances and complexities results in a substantive history of theory development and a careful story about how various perspectives evolved yielding contemporary theorizing. The book is a masterful blend of theoretical lenses and their use in designing developmentally appropriate practice for diverse populations of contemporary college students. It is an excellent resource for all educators who work on college campuses.
