Student Affairs Committees and Teams

The Division of Student Affairs supports the idea of shared governance through its philosophy and support of various leadership teams. Staff are encouraged to actively participate in one or more of these smaller work groups in order to help strengthen collaboration and cooperation. There are several division-wide leadership teams that meet regularly, including the following:
