The functional areas of student affairs and services are considered by several professional associations including: ACPA[1], CAS[2], CACUSS[3], and NASPA[4]. Growing research in the field of student affairs and services contributes to our understanding of how these functional areas are organized and operationalized[5]. The composition and structure of these functional areas differs across various institutions, and continues to be shaped as new information is gathered pertaining to the needs of students in post-secondary education[6].

Departments in Student Affairs may overlap or combine multiple functional areas into one office, especially at smaller institutions.[7] Some departments can include:
Student judicial affairs and academic integrity
[edit]Student judicial affairs and academic integrity offices are typically coordinated by student affairs professionals, with a focus on promoting student success through the prevention and sanctioning of academic and/or non-academic misconduct[6]. Student affairs professionals concerned with student conduct are responsible for communicating and enforcing institutional policies and student codes of conduct, investigating allegations of student misconduct, and working with students throughout the resolution process[8].
The organizational framework for responding to student misconduct varies across institutions, taking a centralized, decentralized, or hybrid approach[6]. Similarly, definitions of student misconduct, the delineation of types of misconduct, and disciplinary processes also vary by institution, though commonalities exist[9].
Depending on the type and severity of the offence, sanctions for academic or non-academic misconduct may be punitive and/or restorative in nature[6][9]. Student affairs professionals working in student judicial affairs and academic integrity are in a unique position to influence a student’s moral and ethical development[8]. By responding to student misconduct in a way that is “measured, fair, and appropriate”[6], student affairs professionals promote the importance of being accountable for misbehavior, while also assisting students in becoming better students, graduates, and members of society.
