Review

In a simple and approachable style, Academic Advising: The Key to Student Success provides a model of academic advising for all community colleges. It supports the need for such a comprehensive model using evidence from the student perspective and illustrates through several examples what the model looks like when it is implemented effectively. Although community college administrators and advising professionals continue to be challenged by multiple demands with limited resources, editor Terry O’Banion’s book suggests effective strategies to improve advising programs. This is a book that should be in the library of every community college counselor, faculty advisor, and administrator devoted to student success. (Community College Journal of Research and Practice)
