Journal of Student Affairs in Africa
The Journal of Student Affairs in Africa has become quite a success, wow. Now this is the fourth issue (Vol. 2 Issue 2) and as a resource to higher ed professionals, academics and students in the African context and beyond, it's a great resource.
This special issue provides what is perhaps the best - - most concise, most accessible, and most contextually relevant - - introduction to the work of Vincent Tinto. Tinto is one of the great theorists in Student Affairs, having contributed immensely to our understanding of the impact of the university environment, institutional culture, etc. on student 'drop-out', student retention and ultimately student success.
JSAA is an open access, scholarly journal published by African Minds. This issue is edited by Prof Teboho Moja (NYU), Dr Birgit Schreiber (UWC), and yours truly.
