STUDENT SERVICES AND ENROLLMENT MANAGEMENT 2019 ANNUAL REPORT: A DECADE IN REVIEW
ANNUAL REPORT 2019
1
A Decade of Growth and Celebration Another decade in the University of Oregon’s rich history draws to a close, and what a transformational time it’s been. I began my tenure at the UO in 2010 and as we launch into 2020, I can’t help but reflect on the past ten years. In my first year, the construction of Matthew Knight Arena, Ford Alumni Center, and the Jaqua Academic Center for Student Athletes opened a new gateway to campus. Since then, and with strong support from President Michael Schill, two new residence halls, Tykeson Hall, Lewis Integrative Science Building, Black Cultural Center, EMU expansion, and many other major building renovations have completely changed the face of the UO. Our world-class programs and services are now housed in world-class facilities that match the quality of the education we offer. The decade was marked by athletic success as well. Since 2010, we’ve celebrated 21 national championships between track and field, cross country, golf, and acrobatics and tumbling. We also held our collective breath with shots at national titles in football and volleyball, while our men’s and women’s basketball teams made deep runs in their respective tournaments. Ashton Eaton thrilled us with world records, Marcus Mariota won a Heisman, and Sabrina Ionescu breaks her triple-double record nightly. University leadership has changed, organizational structures shifted, and the Division of Enrollment Management family grew significantly when we added student services to our division portfolio four years ago. However, what stands out most for me over these past 10 years is witnessing the change in our student body. From 2000 to 2009, our average freshman class was about 3,300 students. From 2010 to 2019, we averaged nearly 4,100 students. And as you’ll read in this annual report, the 2019 entering class set many new records, including the largest number of freshman students, the most diverse student body from a race and ethnicity standpoint, and the most academically qualified student body as measured by GPA, AP credit, and SAT scores.. Ten years of refining our recruitment strategies, reimagining how to better serve our students on campus, and collaborating with our partners across the university have made the UO a destination for more of the brightest and most talented students from across the country and the world. And, as we collaborate with campus partners,

the view of the construction from my window is a tangible reminder of everything we are working toward. From the innovative living-learning programs in our residence halls to the incredible opportunities for research and discovery at the Knight Campus, each building site represents a better UO experience for our students. The accomplishments that fill this annual report are not only the result of our effort in 2019, but the culmination of ten years of hard work.

CLASS OF 2023 Our Student Services and Enrollment Management division works as a team to create an exceptional college experience for every Duck. Whether it is their admissions counselor, a resident assistant, a financial aid coach, or a health care provider, our team works all year long to support each student on their journey to achieve their goals. We mark the beginning of each year with a student class photo and opportunities for them to connect with other new students while they explore ways to get involved.

Staff launchpad Diversity of background and experience are hallmarks of our staff who interact with prospective students and their families, and who conduct careful review of applications to determine which students to select. One innovative component of this staffing is our fifth year of the counselor intern program, which utilizes recent Oregon graduates to work one year for admissions. The intern positions have helped greatly with our staffing needs while letting a few Ducks experience their first taste of working in higher education.

vital presence to more states and countries than ever. A rapidly increasing applicant pool (35% in just the last two years) pushes us to continue looking for efficiencies and innovation in application processing and creative approaches to attracting students who are applying to many other institutions. With two years now under our belts as members of the Common Application, we have witnessed how it has eased the stress of applying for a large segment of interested potential Ducks. Though prospective students are also offered the Coalition Application or our own in-house application, roughly 85% use the Common Application platform.
Out-of-state efforts Additional staffing has allowed admissions to up our time on the road. While we continue to be one of the top destinations for students from California and other western states, we are excited to see more representation from other regions in the US.

Over the course of the next four years, the UO will collaborate with JED to assess current efforts and implement a strategic plan to improve campus mental health.
Student Mental Health Summit During May Mental Health Month, the counseling center hosted a day-long Student Mental Health Summit. The goals of the summit were to reduce stigma around mental health concerns and inform and connect students to wellness and self-care resources. Funded by the Garrett Lee Smith grant, the summit attracted around 100 students.

Many of the greeters are pre-health professional students, so they also learn about the flow of a clinical setting, how to effectively interact with students who may

Chaperone program The University Health Center is committed to a culture of safety, dignity, respect, and patient privacy. To support this commitment, we created a Chaperone Program to offer support to patients during sensitive exams. Our chaperones are members of our nursing team who have specific training in providing support for a safe, respectful, and dignified interaction between provider and patient during a sensitive exam. Students can and should request a chaperone any time they feel it would improve their sense of safety and respect at the health center. Providers can also request a chaperone if they feel it would support the safety, dignity, and respect of the interaction. 18

Our 13 Academic Residential Communities and six Residential Communities bring together students with similar academic or personal pursuits. Our identity-based communities (Gender Equity, LGBTQIA+ Scholars, Multicultural, Native American and Indigenous Studies, and Umoja Black Scholars), have helped foster a sense of belonging for participating students. This fall, we added the Comunidad de Latinx Scholars to our ARC offerings. We have built a faculty-in-residence program, which now includes three
