Student Support & Advocacy
Throughout the year, the Student Support Specialists in the Dean of Students Office are here to listen, support, and help students navigate their best path to success. They are here for you, free of judgment, and will serve as a spokesperson if needed. They serve as a liaison between student and challenge; they will inform, advise, and accompany students as an advocate while they navigate their challenge.
