Office of Student Engagement

The Office of Student Life hosts activities and programs that complement students’ academic experience. Programs include, but are limited to, lectures, speakers, panel discussions, cultural fairs and festivals, awareness days and concerts.

We are responsible for the coordination and implementation of Student Leadership Programs, Intramural and Recreational Sports Programs, Commuter Services, Student Activities, and Greek Life. Our office prides itself in being able to work directly with the students.

This office advises the Student Government Association (SGA), which is the voice for all undergraduate students, clubs, and organizations.

It is our belief that all students must be actively involved in campus life in order to get the full benefit of the college experience. Student involvement should be meaningful and should provide student’s opportunities to grow, develop, and express themselves.
