Student affairs and services play a critical role in student learning and success, as well as the level at which community colleges meet institutional outcomes. The evolution of student affairs as a field and recognition of its role in student experiences underscore its importance in the effort to provide quality
education to college students.

This volume provides a framework for excellence in student affairs work at community colleges, including assessing quality and outcomes for program development and accreditation. The authors explore excellence in preparing and developing professionals at multiple stages in their careers, in creating and
using professional standards and competencies, and in understanding the role of accreditation in professional practice. The issue also includes a discussion of implications for community college student affairs preparation and practice.
