Hi, I'm Arlet Wright, the Senior Associate Dean of Students. I'm excited to connect and see how I can support your goals and make our ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ campus even better. I've been at the university for over 25+ years, and what started as "just a job" has grown into a passion. My goal? To create a welcoming space for everyone, students, faculty, staff, and our entire ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ community.
I've been fortunate enough to receive a few awards along the way, like the first J. Bruce Jackson, M.D. Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Mentoring and the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusive Engagement Excellence Award, among others. These recognitions keep me energized to support every student's journey to success. One nominator once shared, "She has motivated me in times of struggle and challenge... she has always been there to offer great words of wisdom no matter what I was facing." That's exactly what I aim to do here at ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½: to help you go beyond your boundaries, try new things, and embrace lifelong learning!
Oh, and when I'm not around campus, you might catch me at a Cavs game!
Looking forward to getting to know you!
