Welcome!

Dear Students,

Welcome to both our new and returning students.

This semester presents a world of opportunities for personal and academic growth. I encourage you to be deliberate in pursuing those opportunities. Prioritize your studies — but make time to engage in campus life and explore your interests. Participating in campus activities and joining registered student organizations will enhance your time here and help you meet friends and create memories that will remain with you long after graduation day.

Each of you is a valued member of our campus community, and we are eager to support you throughout your time on The Hill. Our faculty and staff are committed to your success and well-being. If you need assistance, please take advantage of the services we provide, many of which are listed below. They are designed to help you thrive.

I wish you all a fun, productive spring semester and look forward to seeing you around campus.

Charles Robinson, Ph.D.

Chancellor
