RLSLP split into two departments

Residential Life and Student Life Programs has been divided into the Department of Student Life Programs and the Department of Housing, effective immediately.

"It's anticipated that the close working relationships in these areas will continue as will the quality of service," said Dean for Student Life Larry G. Benedict, who made the June 27 announcement.

Karen A. Nilsson, current director of housing operations, will lead the Department of Housing. Associate Dean Barbara A. Baker will continue to head Student Life Programs.
