　　Position Overview:

　　The Student Support Case Manager is a position within Student Support and Case Management (SSCM), a department within Student Affairs.

Examples of concerns include; but, are not limited to transition, physical and mental health, student safety, personal crisis, basic needs insecurity, and integration into campus life.

This position reports directly to the Director of Student Support and Case Management and works collaboratively with other staff members within SSCM and Student Affairs, as well as other on- and off-campus colleagues and partners.

　　Student Affairs houses the University’s student services organizations, which provide services and program designed to assist students in achieving their academic and personal goals.
