Resources for Students
Welcome to the student resource page. 91福利社 offers a wealth of resources to support students鈥 academic, cocurricular, and personal experiences. Start here to discover information about the various ways you can benefit from this support and learn about both on and off campus resources.
The Dean of Students Office provides support to students throughout their college career to help them achieve their academic and personal goals. An essential role of the Assistant Dean for Student Success is to meet with individual students to assist in identifying issues and appropriate resources and to then work collaboratively with students to develop an action plan that works best for them. Please reach out to Lorri Edge-Hotmer for an appointment.
Disclaimer: We continue to gather, update and refine the resources listed. If you have any new information or would like us to make edits, please contact the Dean of Students Office.
