Results of a research study to determine the extent to which presidents of 4-year institutions with Senior Student Affairs Officer (SSAO) experience share the leadership characteristics of effective presidents as defined by earlier research are reported. Based on analysis of the data using t test and ANOVA statistical procedures, it is concluded that these presidents do report having the characteristics of effective presidents. With two exceptions, all significant differences found indicate these presidents identify to an even stronger degree with the idealized leadership characteristics than do effective presidents. Further, within this specific group of presidents, significant differences in leadership characteristics were found based on both size and control of institutions. It is anticipated that the results of this research will strengthen the manner in which presidential candidates from the nontraditional pathway of a SSAO are perceived, as well as encourage those student affairs professionals with presidential aspirations.

This study reviews the effects of university financial constraints on student affairs services from 1992 to 1997. Senior student affairs officers at 4-year, state-assisted institutions of higher education that were NASPA members with undergraduate enrollments between 5,000 to 11,000 were surveyed. Additionally, productivity strategies used by senior student affairs officers were identified. A questionnaire was developed to solicit information on the effect financial constraints had on student affairs in the areas of service changes, funding shifts, and perceived program quality.
