    Division of Student Affairs ANNUAL REPORT 2014/15 CONTENTS Strategic Plan . 1 Associated Students, Inc. 5 Titan Athletics . 9 Student Engagement . .13 Student Retention . .33 Student Transitions . .49 STRATEGIC PLAN During the second year of our division strategic plan, we continue to transform the lives our students. This is evidenced by the success stories of our Titans. The support of our student services professionals allow Titans to Reach Higher as they receive scholarships and awards, prepare for graduate school and enter their professional careers. Our assessment reveals that co-curricular involvement allows students the opportunity to develop as engaged, responsible citizens and leaders in our global society. We know lives are transformed because of our passion, commitment to our core values, and dedication to our strategic plan. Remarkable progress was made in 2014-2015 toward reaching our goals: GOAL 1 Our effective collaboration with Academic Affairs in forming a Student Success Team has significantly attributed to Strategic Goal 1 progress. Student Success Teams represent a true partnership between Academic Affairs and Student Affairs to retain and graduate all Titans in a timely manner. Student Success Initiative funds made possible the hiring of nine Graduation Specialists, nine Retention Specialists, and one Trainer to help with CSUF’s retention and graduation efforts. Increased overall CSUF six-year graduation rate past 60 percent, exceeding our 2018 goal already! GOAL 2 Retention efforts have also been reviewed and enhanced in collaboration with academic colleges and campus partners to support Strategic Goal 2. For example, we celebrated the one-year opening of the Titan Dreamers Resource Center, increased staff in our Diversity Initiatives and Resource Centers department, opened the Center for Scholars in the Pollak Library, and re-envisioned transition programs such as Welcome to CSUF Day, Orientation, and our Assistant Dean Program to better support student success and retention.

As protests on Wall Street reach day 15, hundreds on the nation’s op- posite coast marched to steps of Los Angeles City Hall Saturday morn- ing, chanting through the streets of downtown and holding signs ex- pressing dissatisfaction with an array of economic and social issues. Calling themselves Occupy LA in homage to their Wall Street counter- parts, protesters say they represent the other 99 percent of Americans suffering through a harsh economy. Organizers of the event said they plan to stay on the steps of City Hall for as long as it takes to have their voices heard. “We’re tired of all the inequali- ties, all the injustices, regarding Wall Street,” said Pablo Oliva, a worker for the city of Pasadena who was holding a sign depicting a corpo- rate business man reaching into the pocket of the other 99 percent.
