Dean of Studies Office

The Office of the Dean of Studies oversees the academic programs and progress of students, assists faculty dons and faculty in general in advising and guiding students toward completion of their degree, establishes and publicizes standards for all students and works with the faculty-student Committee on Student Work.

The Committee on Student Work, a standing faculty committee of the College, meets weekly and has as its function reviewing each student's academic progress at the end of every semester, setting and evaluating academic policies and procedures, hearing student appeals for exceptions to academic policy, reviewing student plans for leaves of absence and for domestic and abroad off-campus study programs, and screening candidates for competitive postgraduate scholarships and fellowships.

The Dean of Studies Office supports First Year Studies teachers and their donning, conducts an annual review of the "Student Handbook," and meets regularly with staff from other related student-centered departments such as the Office of Student Affairs, the Office of Health Services, the Office of Community Partnerships and Service Learning, the Office of Career Counseling and the Office of Multicultural Affairs.
