RESEARCH ASSISTANCE
Printer Friendly Version Email This Article

Research is an integral part of advancing the fraternity movement, but oftentimes research can be a scary thing for practitioners. Whether you are a beginning researcher wondering where to start or a seasoned research veteran looking for somebody to bounce ideas off of, the Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors can support you in advancing the fraternity movement.
 
The Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors has a resource to guide and support graduate students and professionals in the research process: the Research Mentor program. We have recruited renowned professors in higher education and other well-respected researchers to counsel and mentor the Association’s membership in the areas of assessment and research. Specifically, Research Mentors are available to:
  • Assist graduate students and professionals with assessment and research;
  • Coach individuals in research methods and the research process;
  • Encourage researchers in the area of fraternity advising to produce high quality assessment and research; and
  • Mentor others to become scholar-practitioners in the field of student affairs.
The following Research Mentor has graciously offered his expertise and time. We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to work with a preeminent professor and researcher in higher education and student affairs.
