They primarily focus on understanding the issues of student-athletes and recommendations are oftentimes overly simplistic, failing to explicitly provide interventions that can be executed by student-athlete support personnel. In addition, the topic of supporting student-athletes who are academically at risk and\/or are diagnosed with high incidence disabilities has been overlooked by scholars resulting in few publications specifically focusing on providing strategies to the staff\/personnel who serve these populations. The general target audience is college\/university practitioners who interface with student-athletes who demonstrate academic and social risk in the realm of athletics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese stakeholders include but are not limited to: academic support staff, student athletes, parents, coaches, faculty\/educators, counselors, psychologists, higher education administrators, student affairs professionals, disability services coordinators\/personnel, as well as researchers who focus on education leadership, sports, and special education. All of these groups are likely to find this book attractive especially as they work with student-athletes who are at-risk for academic failure. Also, it is ventured that this book will become the staple text for the National Association of Academic Advisors (N4A), the official organization for all personnel who work in collegiate academic support and can be used by members of intercollegiate athletic associations to reform policies in place to support at-risk student-athletes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction and Overview, Samuel R.
