  • Engaging Students for Success
    ANNUAL REPORT Office of the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs ENGAGING STUDENTS FOR SUCCESS FY 2012 INSIDE Message from the Vice Chancellor 3 THE UIC EXPERIENCE 8 UIC’s Strong Tradition of Student Affairs 4 UIC Athletics 10 Preparation and Transitions Impact Donor Honor Roll 12 Academic Success 5 Student Affairs Departments 15 Engagement and Exploration Impact Student Learning 7 Message from the Vice Chancellor Dear Friends and Supporters, I am pleased to share with you another year of highlights and accomplishments from the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs (OVCSA) and its departments, which work closely with students to enhance student success. This year marks the 30th year since UIC consolidated its two Chicago campuses. The past three decades have been a time of profound change for Student Affairs as the direction has moved from providing basic services to strategically designed programs to nurture student success and improve degree completion. While Student Affairs historically served the students’ out­of­class needs through providing a wide array of programs and services, the mission has evolved to actively engage students in the learning process. From the addition of residence halls on the east side of campus to creation of the Student Services Building to continued focus on student learning in partnership with Academic Affairs, a more holistic approach has contributed to campus gains in student retention and graduation rates. The OVCSA nurtures student academic success from orientation through graduation by offering a well­rounded collegiate experience that fosters lifelong success. Alleviating barriers to degree completion is an important part of the OVCSA’s mission.
