  • Community: Building a strong community is the foundation of the work we do as student affairs professionals. We seek to fully include people of diverse backgrounds and perspectives so we can all grow and thrive by working together to define new opportunities, integrate resources, and share expertise to achieve excellence.

  • Well-being: Being well in mind, body and spirit is not only foundational for learning, but is at the core of living well. Coupled with a sense of resilience, students are enabled to approach other people and situations with confidence and optimism, which is especially important for life transitions and changes.

  • Curiosity: Possessing an open mind and receptive attitude toward the world around us can promote active observation, increased engagement, and creative breakthroughs, all of which lead students toward the knowledge, skills, relationships, and experiences that they need to live full and productive lives.
