Senior Director of Athletics and

collaboration, technology, and
strategic alliances
HIGHLIGHTS
THERE WERE
CO-CURRICULAR
ASSESSMENT
Working closely with the Student
Affairs Communications Coordinator,
a Graduate Assistant, and
assessment leaders from various
student affairs departments, the
VPSA established a framework
for the assessment of student
learning in co-curricular areas.
This framework is aligned with the
Universitys Learning Goals related
to intellect, character, leadership,
and service. The VPSA Graduate
Assistant worked with the Office
of Institutional Effectiveness and
Student Affairs departments
to analyze data from the 2011
Freshman Survey and the 2015
(HERI) Your First College Year and
College Senior Surveys, the 2016
STUDENT ADVOCACY
AND SUPPORT
In response to student activism
related to the experiences of
students of color at JCU and
nationwide, the VPSA worked
closely with the President, Provost,
and Assistant Provost for Diversity
and Inclusion to engage student
leadership of the African American
Alliance (AAA) in constructive
dialogue through a series of monthly
meetings. These meetings provided
an important opportunity to listen
carefully to student concerns
and respond to a list of demands
provided by AAA related to
campus life, the curriculum, and the
institutions response to acts of bias,
intolerance, and racism on campus.

STUDENT PERSPECTIVE
When transferring to JCU the second semester
of my freshmen year, I had many anxieties about
going off to a new school for the second time within
a year. However, this anxiety subsided when I met my coach,
Mike Marich, and the rest of the girls on the womens soccer
team. They welcomed me with open arms and made me feel
at home here at John Carroll. Being a student-athlete at JCU,
both on the field and working for the athletic department for
three years, has truly taught me how to work alongside others
and cooperate to reach a common goal. JCU has not only
provided me with a team to play on and a school to attend,
but most importantly a community and memories that I will
never forget.

STUDENT PERSPECTIVE
Everyone makes a difference. Its something
people always say, but I never believe it. Until
I started college, I felt the exact opposite.
However, I learned the importance of just being a member.
Sure, as a leader, you are the face of a movement or
organization. But as a member, you offer support and
provide a sense of reliability with others. Members serve
as bridges connecting outsiders, allowing them to see the
vision and hear your voice.

I have always felt welcomed every time
I have walked into the Dean of Students

with everyone and inevitably making it easier for me
to properly fulfill my duties. I am truly appreciative
that, over time, the relationship between the Dean
of Students Office and the entire Student Union
Hearing Board (SUHB) has transcended to one that is
not solely formal. The Dean of Students Office truly
cares about us, not just as students working with and
for them, but also as individuals. I am thankful for
everything the office has done for the SUHB and look
forward to working with them next year.

This year the Peer Health Advocates have
given me a way to be involved on campus
that is fun, educational, and aligns with
my passion for public health. Additionally, working
with the bystander intervention program has been an
amazing experience. I feel this program was a way for
me to help change the entire campus culture of John
Carroll and to make it an even safer place to go to
school.

STUDENT PERSPECTIVE
For four years, John Carroll has not only
been my school, but it has been my home.
It became my home because of all the people
I met and the activities I participated in. The musical
programs at John Carroll helped me to be an active part
of the community, and they led me to some of my best
friends at the school. These programs allowed me to
continue singing and showed me what singing can do
for the community. For these reasons, I believe the
music programs at John Carroll are a valuable attribute
to the school.

people. It enhanced my strengths and taught me
the importance of ethical decision making. While
strengthening each person involved in the program, Tier also
bonded me with many students I may have never met. This
programalong with LAUNCH (Leaders Always Undertake

STUDENT PERSPECTIVE
As my first year comes to an end, I can proudly say
it was a phenomenal experience. Although I got
in my fair share of trouble, I slowly learned that it
just wasnt worth it. To be honest, I was a hassle. I was rude
and disrespectful. Through multiple meetings with my Area
Coordinator, Nakiya Findley, we came to solutions about how
to control my behavior, and I couldnt thank her enough. She
taught me that I need to surround myself with positive people
who respect everyone. Without the help of Nakiya and the
RAs, I dont think Id be living in Campion still. Im thankful
for their help because it impacted my life and career choices.
Im excited for next year to blossom and hopefully turn into a
respectful man of Carroll.

As a student worker, Ive had the pleasure of
getting to know the nurses more personally.
Through interaction with them, Im also able to
learn from them. Their compassion for the students and
dedication to John Carroll is apparent through their actions
and work. As a sick student away from home, I always
feel comforted when going to the health center for help.
Kindness, compassion, and knowledge are three words Id
use to describe the staff. I have enjoyed my time spent
working there.

STUDENT PERSPECTIVE
My involvement with the Violence Prevention
and Action Center has shaped my experience at
John Carroll more than any other department
Ive been involved with. Stephanie Cerula has
created a supportive and inclusive environment for all victims,
survivors, and advocates, myself included. Her work goes
beyond the counseling center because it affects the culture in
our campus. As a Peer Health Advocate working with VPAC,
Im able to talk to students about healthy relationships, sexual
practices, interpersonal violence, and many other topics. This
is something I wouldnt have been able to do at the beginning of
my freshman year.
