Advising Goals
The agricultural education faculty strive to know each
advisee on a personal basis, efficiently guide students in
their course of study, career opportunities and placement,
maintain an open door policy, and spend a minimum of one
hour per semester with advisees on an individual basis.
Advising Policy
Advising in the program is a joint cooperative effort
between the two faculty. Students are free to go to either
of the faculty members. Generally, the advisor who comes in
contact with the student first assumes the lead of advising.
Twice a year, the advisee list is reviewed and students
reassigned if the advising load becomes unbalanced. The
program secretary is responsible for maintaining and posting
the advising list. Each student is required to meet with the
advisor before receiving a Personal Data Form for
registration. When appropriate, the advisor enrolls the
student over the computer network, thus ensuring the correct
courses are taken by the student.
Recent Changes and Future Plans
- To Improve Quality of Advising
- The use of an advisee's evaluation sheet has been
implemented to add an exit interview that is conducted
with students.
- To Improve Accessibility of Advisors
- Accessibility has never been a problem in this program.
