Synopsis

This significant book is the only one of its kind. Since the first printing in 1987, many professional academic counselors have used Black Student/White Counselor to upgrade their interpersonal skills when meeting with students of color. The reader learns how to use meaningful words, not cold theoretical phrases. A holistic approach to counseling with significant case studies and other aids help in the development of effective relationships. The counselor is also taught how to deal positively with his or her own racial feelings through the completion of "The Racial Distance Index." There are many suggestions for self-improvement along with clear and important information about the students' social sciences.
