Best Practices to Support Students

New state laws and federal actions are reshaping the boundaries of what colleges can — and can’t — do to support students. From limits on diversity programs to uncertainty around Title IX and immigration policy, the effects of this uncertainty reach every corner of campus.

How can leaders protect their students and stay true to their missions amid constant change?

Supporting Students in Turbulent Times, a new Chronicle report, offers practical strategies for navigating evolving legal and political challenges while maintaining inclusive practices and student trust.

Order this report to learn how to:

• Understand the real legal reach of executive orders and federal “Dear Colleague” letters.

• Reinforce inclusion efforts amid new restrictions and scrutiny.

• Communicate clearly about campus policies and student safety without overpromising.

• Provide consistent support for students affected by changing laws and political pressures.
