The Campus Life Dean’s Office promotes student health, wellness, and academic success by identifying challenges, encouraging self-advocacy, and coordinating support services for students experiencing situations that may affect their personal and academic goals. The team of Campus Life deans utilizes a positive, collaborative, and student-centered approach to best assist students facing adversity.

When student behaviors warrant concerns about safety and well-being, Campus Life works with students to think critically and re-assess educational and personal plans. Campus Life frequently consults and educates faculty regarding overall student wellness and individual student concerns when necessary. In addition to working with faculty, they also provide resources that encourage resiliency for students who may be experiencing situations that interfere with learning, development, success, and safety. Students of concern are referred to other on-campus resources, such as the Counseling and Mental Health Center, Health Center, Center of Academic Services, or another appropriate department.

Students in college often experience personal victories, as well as times of struggle and discovery. Campus Life supports students when they need it the most, helping them to strive to the goal of health, wellness, and academic success.
