“My Advising Philosophy style is student-centered. I actively listen to student’s concerns and respond appropriately to their questions. Every student has an individual story and unique aspirations here at UMKC. I prefer to take an active-listening approach over talking. Many students don’t feel heard, so actively listening will ensure their concerns are heard. I’ve learned from students that life happens and not everything goes as planned. Over the years, I’ve learned to be mindful of these unexpected life circumstances and challenges.” – Nick Chappell
