A handbook for college and university administrators negotiating their way through the complexities of student administration, offering both hands-on details and guidance on broader educational administration issues. Topics include recruitment and retention, course construction and module choice, examinations, awards ceremonies and certificates, discipline, records and transcripts, financial and legal obligations, and confidentiality and data protection. Written by a British administrator but with efforts made to universalize the text's utility. Distributed by Taylor & Francis. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
