please respond. to. Jennifer with 400. words a p a. style citations and references Hello,, My understanding of college students has not changed but has grown. I have a better handle on the legal issues facing higher education and the students we serve. This course will only enhance my current position within my university. Legal challenges and issues in higher education can affect my office and the students. The university can get distracted from the mission if we ignore ensuring a safe and legal environment.
My first practical lesson came from the first discussion in this course. The future of higher education is a commercial commodity, and there is a need for accountability and the student as the product’s consumer. When those products are unmet, the student can seek that accountability through the courts. Diver (2020) writes that there is a collaborative relationship between the institution and the student.
My second practical lesson was gained from the course readings. One point that stands out is the general introduction. Kaplin (2020) discusses the systems within higher education, where the university sets policies, procedures, and rules for how the university governs. In my current position, student conduct is integral to the university. Those policies in the Student Code of Conduct must mirror the laws outside the university.
My third practical lesson was the knowledge I gained from all aspects of this class. Understanding the law and how it works with or affects higher education can only strengthen my ability to work in senior administration of Student Affairs.
With each course that I have taken through Liberty University, the School of Education’s theme of “Preparing Socially Responsible Candidates Who Are Culturally REAL.” which stands for “Respecting all people, Exhibiting inclusive practice, Advocating for equity, Loving unconditionally.” resonates in my mind daily (Liberty University, SOE (School of Education), 2024). This acronym has made me realize that my work would not have been done without Christ. Keeping in mind the REAL acronym as a part of my daily journey, my service to our students grows. A verse that comes to mind for me is Proverbs 4:23, “keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life” (ESV, 2016).
