The Journal of Student Affairs Inquiry is an online, peer-reviewed publication for inquiry (i.e., assessment, evaluation, and research) in student affairs. This journal provides a scholarly space for addressing practice and theory in student affairs inquiry by highlighting both the universal (e.g., foundations of student affairs assessment) and the local (e.g., single-institution assessment projects). Additionally, the editorial board encourages engagement and feedback by publishing letters to the editor and responses to published pieces. Intentionally comprehensive and flexible, The Journal of Student Affairs Inquiry engages practitioner scholars in thoughtful and critical discussions of inquiry in order to improve student experiences, promote equity and access, and advance the field of assessment in student affairs.The Journal of Student Affairs Inquiry is aimed at advancing the scholarship of assessment practice in student affairs. The term Inquiry has been chosen intentionally to represent the ongoing reflection upon and implementation of assessment efforts in student affairs. All too often, assessment is seen and approached in segmented chunks rather than ongoing and perpetual processes in which practitioner scholars engage in deep learning. Inquiry involves reflective and reflexive efforts to address universal and local contexts of assessment, evaluation, and research germane to student affairs.Inquiry represents an effort to transcend strict divisions of assessment, evaluation, and research. To that end, The Journal of Student Affairs Inquiry invites contributions that advance the field of assessment in student affairs, whether focused on assessment and evaluation of effective practices and student learning, or on the discovery of new knowledge. Ultimately, The Journal of Student Affairs Inquiry serves as a space to advance the discipline of assessment in student affairs.
