Deans Office
Associate Dean: Dr. Kregg Strehorn The Academic Dean’s Office within Undergraduate Advising serves all students who have not yet declared a major, as well as those who have declared the Bachelor’s Degree with Individual Concentration (BDIC) major. The academic dean has been delegated authority by the university’s faculty to monitor students’ academic progress, to make decisions on academic discipline, to grant exceptions to academic policy and regulations, and to forward student appeals to the Faculty Senate’s Committee on Admissions and Records. The academic dean and his staff also support student advancement toward the declaration of a major and completion of an undergraduate degree by providing several specialized services for various groups of undeclared students. These services include frequent meetings with an advisor to monitor progress in a degree plan, regular informational email communications, and a seminar for students who have faced academic discipline. |
