Student Development Made Operational.
Rodgers, Allan W.
This paper defines student development as a concept, not a program. It provides four organizational models for student development: (1) the single program where all staff are assigned the same responsibility and carry out that responsibility in ways which are quite similar; (2) the program where two or three people are assigned the responsibility for student development; (3) the creation of a Student Development Center whose responsibility it is to carry out the program for the entire campus; and (4) the pluralistic approach wherein each department (or staff member) is conducting a program of student development. Goals of student development are defined as follows: (1) to provide opportunities which have potential for impact on all students; (2) to create a campus climate conducive to learning; (3) to foster personal growth; (4) to enhance students ability to maintain satisfying human relationships; (5) to assist students in the development of their decision making processes; and (6) to broaden the perspectives of students through a multiplicity of activities.
