Student Affairs in Higher Education
Today we had the visit of Ann Lundquist, Director of Strategic Planning and Assesment, Division of Studen Affairs. Her presentation included aspects that justified the arguments towards the many times minimized, Students Affairs Department. In our country, students live with the family during their studies, so many functions of the department do not apply to the Dominican context.
We are now entering the career accreditation process with different agencies and are in the process of changing the culture from good intentions to evidence. To collect sound evidence for students affairs, a school must change from we might do it to we are intentionally doing to obtain a particular result in students. During her participation, other members of my faculty were present, and we remembered a meeting that we had just to address this process. My role is to support them to create assessment with the end in mind and to organize students affairs activities that enrich student development while in UNIBE. Also, my role at UNIBE includes complying with both Dominican and USA Education and revising that our rules and regulations policies comply with both systems.
Student development at UNIBE implies to develop an institutional environment of healthy coexistence and solidarity. There's a unit that services the student and provides orientation services, advice and follow up to students. They facilitate the integration of the students to the university and promote their connection with their career through different activities including, job fair, athletics and sports, counseling, and legal activities among others.
