The College of Health and Human Development maintains an Student Services Center staffed by professional advisers to help students—especially freshmen and sophomores—develop educational plans and to provide academic advising for students.
The basic tasks of the University's academic advising programs are:
- to help undergraduate students identify and achieve their academic goals,
- to promote intellectual discovery,
- to encourage students to take advantage of both in and out-of-class educational opportunities,
- to become self-directed learners and decision makers.
