The Office of Student Life

The Office of Student Life is here to support the lives of our students outside the classroom.

We aim to support and empower our students to take action in their education by engaging themselves in and outside of the classroom. In partnership with students, faculty, and staff we are committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming community that encourages all to join. We aim to facilitate student learning and development through our programs and services to transform and deepen the lives of all students as they work toward reaching their personal goals.

We oversee all of the student clubs, organizations, and interest groups, we advise the Student Government Association, we provide leadership opportunities for students, we host student events, and much more! You can always come to Student Life if you need help with anything or have a question about something and not quite sure who to ask.
