Mission
The mission of the Adult Learner and Students with Children (ALSC) KC would be to increase awareness, disseminate information, identify resources and track academic and demographic trends concerning these typically under-represented but growing, and frequently intersecting, populations of students. All efforts of the NASPA KC are ultimately focused on increasing the recruitment, admission, retention and graduation of students with children and adult learners throughout higher education.
Vision
Our vision is to increase awareness of what we believe to be two groups of typically under-represented and under-served student populations. Current trends in higher education indicate that both students with children and adult learners will have an increasingly significant presence on college campuses in the years ahead. It is our intent to be the primary source and channel for research on and best practices for, effective student parent and adult learner services throughout the NASPA organization.
