Learning Reconsidered 2: A Practical Guide to Implementing a Campus-Wide Focus on the Student Experience

Learning Reconsidered 2This just-released companion publication to Learning Reconsidered: A Campus-Wide Focus on the Student Experience, which called for academic and student development processes to work together for the benefit of students, is a blueprint for action. It shows how to create the dialogue, tools, and materials necessary to put into practice the recommendations in Learning Reconsidered.

NIRSA Member Institutions will receive one complimentary copy in the mail. Additional copies are available from the NIRSA Education & Publication Center for $11.75 ($9.99 for Institutional Members) plus shipping.

At the 2006 Annual Conference in Louisville, one of the most popular sessions was the Learning Reconsidered 2 (LR2) panel discussion. Dr. Gwen Dungy, Executive Director of NASPA, led a lively talk about the continued integration of all higher education’s resources, including the role of campus recreational sports programs in the education and preparation of the whole student.

LR2 reflects a collaborative effort among the following organizations:

  • American College Personnel Association (ACPA)
  • Association of College and University Housing Officers–International (ACUHO-I)
  • Association of College Unions– International (ACUI)
  • National Academic Advising Association (NACADA)
  • National Association for Campus Activities (NACA)
  • National Association of Student Personnel Administrators (NASPA)
  • National Intramural-Recreational Sports Association (NIRSA)
