Student Affairs

AU StudentsThe Student Affairs Division is committed to educating our students to develop, explore, and express themselves as individuals and as members of a community, in an environment of mutual respect and safety. We offer students opportunities for leadership, teamwork, self-expression, social engagement, responsibility, and more.

  • Aligns our residential living environment with our student-centered philosophy by focusing on the first-year experience, facilities, and community development.

  • Prepares students for life after college through effective career development and women's leadership.
  • Establishes a campus-wide climate that celebrates diversity while sharing common goals.
