Participants were immersed in three days of intensive instruction that included introduction to adviser ethics and responsibilities, technology, advertising and financial concerns, legal matters, student mentoring, and impromptu discussions on a wide variety of topics related to advising duties at public and private colleges on both small campuses and large ones.
