What Is a Dean of Students?

The Dean of Students office oversees many of Roane State's student support services such as Counseling and Disability Services. I also work with a network of staff members across our campuses to address student basic needs insecurities. Additionally, I manage our Student Conduct Policy and serve as a Deputy Title IX Coordinator. 

The Dean of Students office works in tandem with the campus community to encourage and support the Vision, Mission and Values of the college. Ultimately my goal is the success of our students.

When Do You Contact the Dean of Students Office?

If you aren't sure if the Dean of Students is the right place to go with a question, a request, or information, stop in any way. We know life happens and many things outside the classroom may cause problems for you in the classroom. There can be illness, loss of loved ones, and many other circumstances causing you to struggle in the classroom. We want to help you or help you figure out where you should go for help.
