The Dean of Students Office strives to serve as a collaborative, compassionate resource that advocates for students through challenge, support, and removal of barriers to the students overall success. 

Our Goals:

  • Care & Mental Health: We will provide students with individualized consultations and relevant resources to support their overall wellness and success.
  • Student Conduct & Accountability: We will offer students opportunities to engage in learning after policy violations and/or community harms, in order to change and improve behavior moving forward.
  • Identity & Equity: We will provide a spectrum of opportunities to respond to concerns related to identity-based harm and incidents. 
  • Access & Collaboration: We will offer resources and support to each student that honors their identities, removes barriers, and supports holistic student success.
These goals will help us to:
  • Provide students essential resources to help them be successful academically
  • Address student conduct issues
  • Create developmental learning opportunities
  • Engage students in ethical decision-making
