As Associate Dean Winzerling addresses, we highly value advising in our

President Hart has indicated that student advising is an important component
in serving our students as we move forward with the Enterprise plan. Dean
Burgess also has expressed that he thinks student advising extremely
important and a priority for CALS. Since we have several new interim Unit
Heads, I thought it might be helpful for you to have the following
information.

 

We greatly value our students and advisors in CALS. The general student to
advisor ratio for the university is 400:1.  Our goal as a College is to stay
at or below this ratio. As you plan how you will best meet your unit's needs
please consider student advising in your plans. At this time, we have two
full time advisors within CAS who advise students, conduct all of our new
student orientations, deal with issues of student retention, work one-on-one
with our students who are on academic probation, assist transfer students
and support our unit advisors. Our College advisors meet monthly with the
unit advisors during the academic year to keep them informed on University
and College policies and practices.  The college has been successful in
having representation from all CALS units at the advisor monthly meetings,
and we would like to maintain this great collaboration. Herewith is a
listing of the designated advisors for our programs.  If you make changes in
your units with regards to your advisor, then please let our office know who
will participate in the monthly advisor meetings and to whom we can refer
interested students. Thank you for all your efforts on behalf of our
students and advisors.

 

Joy
