In the book titled "Leadership in Higher Education," authors James Kouzes and Barry Posner bring their expertise to higher education, offering five practices that can make any college or university leader into an exemplary leader. "Leadership in Higher Education is a good starting point for someone who is curious about or new to the leadership practice. It provides relatable anecdotes, concepts, and practices that one can easily apply to their daily lives without getting too deep into the weeds," writes Eroica Davis, associate director of financial aid at the Florida Institute of Technology, who read the book and shared her opinions of its content with NASFAA. What follows are her takeaways, thoughts, and reflections.

The NASFAA office will be closed on Thursday, November 23, and Friday, November 24, for the Thanksgiving holiday. The NASFAA website and other online services will still be available, but NASFAA's Today's News will not be published and AskRegs and membership support will not be available until the office reopens on Monday, November 27. We're so thankful for all of our members and for all you do for your students and for the profession. The hard work and dedication of our task force members, working groups, committees, councils, and commissions who volunteer their time and talent are instrumental to advancing NASFAA's mission. We hope you have a wonderful holiday!
