Dean of Students Office

The Dean of Students Office, third floor, Elliot Center, is the central coordination point for student concerns on campus. Through this office, the Dean of Students coordinates a variety of services for students, including advocacy for the resolution of student problems and coordination of the leave and withdrawal process.

The student advocacy role of this office provides students with a central location in Elliot Center to which they can turn with problems they have been unable to resolve elsewhere. The Dean of Students Office will refer students to the appropriate services or will help them understand the policies and procedures of the College in order that they may find the help they are seeking. The Dean of Students Office frequently deals with personal or family problems and acts as a liaison with both internal and external resources.

Students should feel free to contact the Dean of Students Office by calling 358-2842.
