The overarching purpose of the work done in Student Affairs is to increase opportunities for students to engage in intentional learning experiences, educate students on the value of living in a diverse, dynamic global community and encourage the personal and professional development of students. At times, it takes a multidisciplinary group of people to work together in support of a common goal and produce a larger impact than they could achieve as a single department. The cooperative work model allows us to be good stewards of available resources, increases innovation in programming and provides students with opportunities to be involved in the development of initiatives that impact fellow students. Assessment Committee - Students Affairs departments and programs are reviewed and assessed annually by this committee. Information about assessment theory, practices, and activities are disseminated to departments and the committee advocates for resources to promote a culture of assessment. Reports and feedback are given to the Vice Chancellor's leadership team on program and departmental effectiveness which is used to help provide better services to our students. Bias Response Team - The University values and embraces the ideals of freedom of inquiry, freedom of thought, and freedom of expression, all of which must be vitally sustained in a community of scholars. We believe that all members of the campus community deserve to be treated with dignity, fairness and respect. We urge all members of the community to promptly report all incidents of personal threats or acts of misconduct which violate criminal law or University Policy. Student Concern Response Team - The Student Concern Response Team (SCRT) meets regularly to confidentially share information and discuss students that may be having behavioral difficulties. Tuition & Fee Committee - Reviews tuition and fee increase proposals, actively solicits studentnput on proposals, makes recommendations to the Chancellor, and certifies student involvement in the process. Wellness Council - is a collaboration of students, faculty, and staff who address priority wellness needs. |
