Abstract

Janet Schulenberg and Junhow Wei, editors at The Mentor, interview Peter Hagen about the process of writing his book The Power of Story: Narrative Theory in Academic Advising (2018) and how his thoughts on academic advising have evolved over time. In particular, Hagen reflects on the relative value of humanistic versus social scientific approaches in advising scholarship and practice.
