Student Affairs divisions have long engaged in documenting student participation, involvement, and engagement outside the classroom. Called by various names, Comprehensive Student Records (CSRs) and Co-Curricular Transcripts (CCTs) can mean something different at every campus using them.

In the past several years, advances in technology support and the hands-on involvement of faculty, students, and registrars have inspired campuses to re-envision their approach entirely.  In this webinar, field expert Anne Lundquist will provide a history of the role of CSRs and CCTs and experienced campus professionals from Western Michigan University and William Paterson University will review how their CSRs/CCTs have evolved over time.
