A survey of college and university judicial officers and counseling center directors explored the use of disciplinary counseling in the student judicial process and how it is viewed by the individuals in these positions. Data about demographics and the frequency of referrals are given, and issues related to disciplinary counseling are discussed.

This study allowed us to determine differences in advisors' attitudes toward students who matriculate at their 4-year institutions (native students), students who transfer from community colleges, and those that come from other 4-year institutions. Results show that advisors view transfer students to be less prepared, less motivated, less knowledgeable about requirements and procedures, and less able to adjust to the upper-division academic environment. Potential consequences of advisors' attitudes are discussed along with suggested avenues for addressing them.
