Life on Campus

Student Affairs


Welcome to the Division of Student Affairs

Our motto is: engage, explore, and excel.

We provide a variety of co-curricular programs and services to encourage and support student involvement and experiential learning outside the classroom. Each department or program within the division has unique responsibilities, yet works collaboratively across the campus to serve students and the community.

Several of our departments help students navigate and become involved in campus life. Involvement options offered through our departments include: orientation, student advocacy, student activities and events, leadership development, service learning, and volunteering opportunities off campus.

Other departments within the division offer services frequently needed or requested by students. Services include assistance in finding off-campus housing, childcare, and interfaith ministry. We are also committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for students, the campus community, and visitors through our policing and campus-based health services.

We invite you to browse our website and encourage you to contact us with questions or if you want more information.

We are fully committed to your success as a student!
