To align with this philosophical approach to our work, the AVP will operate as a generalist to engage in an array of projects, initiatives, and collaborations for the purpose of maximizing impact in the community.
  • Improve Student Affairs' Ability to Integrate Wellbeing into Practice : While our goal is to support student success as measured by first to second year retention and graduation. Embedded in this larger objective, we also have the chance to help students develop healthy habits around wellbeing that will benefit them at LSU and for the rest of their lives. Although this effort is underway, the AVP will help recalibrate and hone our strategies for ensuring that elements of wellbeing are appropriately integrated throughout students' co-curricular experience. The growing complexity of concerns students are bringing to college makes this work more important than ever.
  • Establish an Approach for Divisional Continuous Improvement : Every year, Student Affairs strives to make some aspects of our work better than the previous year. Doing so requires a data-driven and informed approach rooted in honest assessments of programs, services, events, and experiences to ensure quality, effectiveness, efficiency, relevance, and alignment with divisional and institutional objectives.
