Who authored The Counselor in a Changing World, urging school-based counselors to address diversity and student needs?

• A. Carl Rogers
• B. William Glasser
• C. C. Gilbert Wrenn
• D. Sigmund Freud

Answer: (C)

The main idea here is recognizing who positioned school counselors to respond to a diverse, changing student population. Gilbert Wrenn wrote The Counselor in a Changing World, a work that urges school-based counselors to move beyond traditional guidance roles and actively address diversity, equity, and the varied needs of students. He emphasizes culturally responsive practice, collaboration with families and teachers, and supporting both social-emotional and academic development within the evolving school environment. That focus on adapting counseling to modern, diverse schools is why his authorship fits the prompt.

As for the others, Carl Rogers is celebrated for client-centered therapy and general counseling principles rather than this specific guidance for school settings. William Glasser is known for Reality Therapy and Choice Theory, emphasizing personal responsibility and behavior management rather than the particular emphasis on diversity in schools. Sigmund Freud is associated with psychoanalysis, not school-based counseling literature about changing student needs.
