Admissions vs Student Affairs

Wow.. it feels like just a few days ago I was posting about the huge differences I'd seen so far between working in a SA office versus the Admissions environment I find myself in now.  Fast forward to yesterday when I discovered that this debate is in fact happening not only within me.. but also on some of the popular tumblr sites in both areas.

Apparently (paraphrasing here) the folks at admissionsproblems.tumblr.com have been getting a good deal of flack from the SA folks who read the posts.. It came to a head when the "AP" folks posted an image of a very poorly written essay for admission... The question of how much is too much when it comes to *poking fun* or telling "war stories."

"AP" then countered back that Admissions isn't Student Affairs.. and that it shouldn't be as concerned about the things that the SA world are..

Thank you realitytvgifs.tumblr.com for this gem. 

cut to me.. sitting in an admissions office.. feeling all of my SA background coming back.. and being horribly offended.

The entire situation is a mess.. do I side with one group or the other.. not really.. but it really did make me think more about the situation I've found myself in.. torn between two worlds and not "fitting" into either one.

Anyone out there make the jump from one side to the other and have some advice for me?  Any insight from people who've moved around into other areas of higher education and found similar situations?  I spend half my days thinking about how I should say something.. but realizing it's not my place.. Here's to hoping it gets easier!
