Creating campus culture

The Office of Student Life exists to provide a growing Christian community and create a culture that emphasizes student leadership opportunities, fosters character development, enhances academic success, develops cultural competencies, and prepares students for Christ-inspired leadership roles in a local and global society.

The vision of Student Life is to:

• complement the academic purpose of the University by offering students supportive resources designed to inspire excellent thought;
• provide students with ample opportunities to develop a character of integrity and to shape a life of generous service;
• foster a community committed to balanced, healthy living designed to inspire a beautiful way of life; and,
• encourage students through various activities, programs, and partnerships to nurture a strong working relationship with God.

Philosophy 

In the Office of Student Life we believe that through our collaboration across campus, students will be provided quality co-curricular programs and services that promote wholistic student success. Our staff is dedicated to creating a positive spiritual, social, and academic atmosphere through a support system that assists students in their personal and professional development. We believe in providing students with a variety of excellent leadership opportunities, as well as offering quality mentorship to develop leadership skills. We are committed to preparing students for success in both their vocation and in a joy-filled life of local and global service. Finally, we believe in leading, by example, our students to a faith-filled life of discipleship and learning in the footsteps of Jesus Christ within the faith tradition of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
