Student Affairs educates students in community living, social intelligence and responsibility, ethical behavior, citizenship skills and social justice, leadership skills, coping with adversity, health and wellness, diversity, and adaptive skills for living. We counsel, encourage, heal, house and advise students, and we enjoy watching our young women and men mature into intelligent, responsible and enthusiastic adults. More importantly, though, the Division is made up of many people who care deeply about our students and their experiences inside and outside the classroom.</p> <p>For a complete list of departments in the Division of Student Affairs, use the Departmental Links on the left.
