I serve as chief student affairs officer in the Division of the Humanities. My duties include all aspects of registration, academic records, and student data administration in the Division. I prepare and manage the divisional fellowship budget; organize and oversee the annual admissions and aid competition; monitor departmental admissions decisions; approve departmental financial aid recommendations; and generate research to determine enrollment projections and admissions trends. Much of my time is spent advising students on a wide range of problems relating to academic work, program requirements, tuition and fee schedules, student conduct, housing, health insurance, and financial aid. I also provide support to faculty and central administration on all matters relating to student welfare.
