In this final chapter, the authors synthesize and draw from chapters across this volume to provide concluding remarks and recommendations. The authors suggest that core to the discussion of excellence of student affairs in community colleges are the concepts of integration and collaboration. As professionals tasked with supporting the student learning experience at institutions with diverse, commuter populations, the formal and informal relationships and collaborations between student and academic affairs are critical.
