This model represents a shift from content based advising to a holistic student development approach, which will focus on individual RSO needs. The model creates opportunities for peer to peer advising, an increase in access and efficiency for RSO needs and highlights the importance for training and leadership development. It empowers staff to provide a consultant-based approach to advising meeting the unique needs of the diverse portfolio of RSOs.
Some organizations require mostly procedural or transactional advisement that can be accommodated by a team of student advisors, trained through the Center for Leadership and Involvement. These advisors will be "on duty" during peak times in the Student Activities Center to allow increased access to RSOs. Other organizations - based on scale of events, budget, RSO complexity – require staff support to encourage membership and RSO success.
Organizations will be sorted and advised based on their place on a needs spectrum rather than their content category.
In Depth Look
The needs-based model allows the Center for Leadership and Involvement staff to hone in on the exact resources and training that is appropriate for each organization based on their position on the needs spectrum.
