As a part of your first semester course load, you are taking a Foundations of Student Affairs course. One of the articles you must read for this week is “What Counts as ‘Essential’ Knowledge for Student Affairs Educators?” You also have three more articles to read for this particular class, nevermind the other courses you’re enrolled in. You also have to complete the “Where I’m From” assignment, which requires a good amount of intrapersonal reflection. • READY, GO! • 10 minutes to read • 10 minutes for assignment • 10 minute discussion
