The Division provides graduate assistantships and practicum experiences for students in the program, and student affairs staff serve as faculty. Residential and Dining Programs has partnered with various faculty and academic departments in its Wellness Hall and First Year Experience Programs, the Resident Advisor training courses and the Fine Dining Programs. Career Services works closely with academic career advisors to coordinate advising services to students. The Division's plan commits it to continue the development of opportunities for collaborative partnerships with faculty. Task 1.A. Develop a comprehensive program for student leadership development that includes both formal study and experiences in leadership.
Leadership development is one focus for new collaboration.
The Center for Leader Development and Leadership Minor offered jointly by the Corps of Cadets and the College of Arts and Sciences provide a model which can be replicated more broadly within the student body. A vision team has already been charged to develop a curriculum which will interweave classroom-based learning and non military leadership experiences to create a comprehensive leadership program to which all students can apply. Develop a plan for cooperative programs among University Student Health Services, the University Counseling Center, Recreational Sports, and the College of Human Resources and Education. A second focus for collaboration is the new Student Health and Fitness Center, which will open in the 1998-99 academic year. This facility will house University Student Health Services, the University Counseling Center, and Recreational Sports.
