Mission Statement
The Office of Student Leadership and Engagement provides a comprehensive array of programs and services that directly impact and enhance the quality of student life on campus while supporting the social, cultural, educational, personal and professional development of students. Our goal is to create community wherein the many cultures and identities within which our students align are celebrated, explored and understood. We provide opportunities for students to engage as members in the college community through assuming leadership roles as mentors, members and officers of student clubs and organizations. Through this participation, workforce readiness skills in areas including program planning, budget management, and individual and group development are fostered that help prepare students for living in a global society.
Aligned with the college’s goals and mission, we seek to create an environment that empowers students to explore their beliefs, develop their talents, and position them for lives of service and meaning. Through participation in college programs and events, leadership positions in student clubs and organizations, the development of individual and group leadership skills, and services to support student success, we seek to create a college experience that is vibrant and purposeful for all students. Our success in this area comes from intentional leadership and a strong understanding of how to engage students to develop community in a college environment. Through this schemata, we create a framework for creative learning that supports the success, retention and completion of all students.
