Özet:
This qualitative study explored the experiences of deans of students at small, private, liberal arts colleges in relation to the meaningful and sustained connections they develop with undergraduate students. The research design was an intrinsic, single case, multisite case study with six participants at their respective colleges. Each participant served at their college in their current position as dean of students for a minimum of five years. Data collection techniques included stationary office interviews, mobile interview campus tours, participant journal reflective exercises, along with document and artifact review. An interpretive constant comparative analysis process illuminated four main categorical findings. The findings uncovered the impact of participants' previous history as college students; current institutional factors that impact their actions; significant attributes and characteristics that contribute to the ability to develop meaningful connections; and intentionally developed connections that deans nurture with specific student leaders, organizations, and populations. Each category encompassed a foundation of multiple subcategories that were massaged out through the iterative coding and analysis process. The benefits of the meaningful and sustained connections to both students and institutions are discussed. Implications of this study are presented for both student affairs practitioners at liberal arts colleges and the higher education scholarly community. The study concludes with recommendations for future research to contribute to the small, but growing body of literature focused on the experiences of student affairs professionals at liberal arts colleges.
