Assignment of Advisor and Major for New Students Faculty members are selected and assigned by the department chair to act as advisors. The registrar assigns a student for advisement to the department compatible with the student's academic interest as expressed in his application for admission. The department chair will assign the student to the specific advisor in the area of the student's interest. Entering students who do not express a field of interest are assigned to the vice president for student affairs for advising. The interest taken in a student by the advisor represents one of the greatest services to the student and to the University.
All advisors have access to their assigned advisees through the on-line computing system.
Faculty Hours Faculty should post office hours on office doors. They should be available for two hours daily in order to confer with students.
