The Office of Academic and Student Affairs, on the third floor of the Graduate Education Building, offers a wide range of services. Associate Dean Kate Mamiseishvili oversees the office. Undergraduates come by for assistance in the following: Academic standards petitions, assistance with registration, change of major, enrollment overload requests, grade appeals, academic integrity, graduation checks and clearance, degree verification and athletic verification. OASIS (Office of Academic Student Initiatives and Services) fulfills these needs. The Office of Academic and Student Affairs also is responsible for academic program review, accreditation, community relations, encouraging external funding applications, articulation agreements, curriculum approval and regulation, and a variety of faculty support programs, including tenure and promotion, faculty development and off-campus duty assignments. The Office of Teacher Education places student interns at area schools as well as assists in licensure for newly graduated teachers.
The Office for Administration — headed by Assistant Dean Lewatis D. McNeal — is responsible for facilities, financial systems, human resources, and technology services.
The staff of the Office of Development — including Senior Director of Development Jamie Banks and Major Gift Development Officer Bailey Younger — helps arrange for private gift support for the college's academic and research units and programs.
The college's Office of the Dean oversees many executive functions including coordination, outreach, communications and media.
