N2 - Research indicates that effective advising has important ramifications for students' coursework as well as future careers, yet, very few studies have assessed how college graduates define their advising experiences, and whether the experience of "bad advising" truly results in negative outcomes for students and departments. To fill this void, attention is given to the way that graduates from one department defined their advising experiences. Results show that ineffective advising influenced learning outcomes and perceptions of the department. Implications for improving advising practices are suggested.
