Empowering Students toward Success
Who is Student Affairs & what do you do?
Student Affairs affirms the university's mission by enhancing Oregon Tech’s dynamic learning community through opportunities for access, development, and success. Student Affairs departments collaborate with students, faculty, staff, and external constituents to promote engagement, encourage holistic wellness, and support persistence to graduation, as well as the realization of educational and professional aspirations for students and alumni.
The Student Affairs Office is the location for the Vice President for Student Affairs and the Dean of Students, and the Executive Assistant. The division of Student Affairs provides direct service to students in multiple offices.
Dr. Clark and her staff maintain close relationships with students and student organizations and are available for consultation and collaboration on all matters pertaining to student well-being and success.
