Student Support & Outreach (SS+O) is a unit within the Office of the Associate Vice President for Student Well-Being and Dean of Students that advocates and supports students experiencing challenges in their personal and academic lives. Most students experience times during their college careers when they may need some additional support. SS+O team helps students connect with college and community resources, navigate college administrative processes, and develop resiliency, self-advocacy, and coping skills. SS+O also educates faculty and staff on working with students of concern, including making appropriate referrals.
Please note that we are NOT counselors and that in some situations, it may be appropriate to refer the student directly to the Student Counseling Center.
