Student Affairs

An Affair of the Heart

We have our advisors to look after our academic well-being, but what of the rest? There is much more to college than our intellectual development. And this is what Student Affairs is all about-- the non– academic aspect of our college career. They are here to provide services and programs that focus on our social and individual devel– opment and well-being. Tom Burke, vice-president of Student Affairs, and Tom Cosgrove, associate dean of students, oversee some of the more diverse offices and programs at USD, including Campus Ministry, Alcohol and Drug Education, Outdoor Adventures, and Volunteer Resources. Student Affairs also advises the A.S. officers in their duties and activities, so as to provide the best and most varied opportunities for students to participate at USD. All this is done to ensure that our college years are as diverse and interesting as pos– sible.

"Director of Student Activities" -- the title is a bit intimidating, a bit overwhelming, and connotes a burden of responsibilities too unwieldly for any mortal. However, Carol Lyman has proven this to be a misconception. Among the responsibilities that she handled with capable hands and an ever-present smile this year were Director of the Emerging Leaders Program, Spring Orientation Coodinator, supervi– sor of the Archways handbook, and supervisor of the Student Affairs graduate assistants. She also function€d as advisor to the Cheer Squad, the Vista, A.S. Programming, A.S. Elections, and the A.S. Executive Board. The familiar saying that suggests a unit is only as good as its leader seems to be a working creed for Student Activities. Her enthusiasm was infectious and her inexhaustible supply of en– ergy inspired others to strive for the same level of commitment in all their activities.
