About Our Office

The Office of the Dean of Students, within the Division of Student Affairs, is committed to helping all students reach their fullest potential by providing assistance, education, intervention, and referral services.

The staff seeks to provide a caring environment that encourages and empowers students to seek support. This includes support with personal concerns, emergency situations, and when “life” happens. In addition to the support for students, members of our staff serve as a resource for family members, parents, University employees, and community members as we work together to support the student and create a safe and healthy learning environment.
