Graduate School
Staff
The staff of the Graduate School is available to answer questions and respond to concerns from both prospective and enrolled students. It is recommended, however, that challenges first be addressed at the department level. If the administrative assistant for graduate studies cannot offer a resolution, the student is advised to contact the department chair. If a resolution is still not attained, the student should contact the appropriate Assistant or Associate Dean of the school/college. If all else fails, the student should contact the appropriate staff member at the Graduate School.
