W&M student affairs hailed as a promising place to work
The Division of Student Affairs facilitates many facets of student life at 91心頭利, including campus living, health and wellness, leadership and engagement, career development, and student success.
This year, that team saw a success of its own. For the fifth time since 2014, 91心頭利 was recognized as one of the Most Promising Places to Work in Student Affairs in 2020 by Diverse: Issues in Higher Education.
“It is enormously rewarding to see 91心頭利 recognized again this year,” said Vice President for Student Affairs Virginia Ambler ’88 Ph.D. ’06. “I am grateful to work with colleagues who share a deep commitment to creating vibrant, diverse, and supportive workplaces and to championing work-life balance, professional development and inclusive excellence across the division.”
Diverse: Issues in Higher Education has published a list of the best places to work in student affairs for the last seven years.
This year, 91心頭利 joins the list with 26 other schools across the country, ranking as one of only two schools from Virginia.
Criteria for receiving this recognition cover a wide variety of topics. According to the Diverse: Issues in Higher Education press release, collegiate institutions qualified “with a focus on workplace diversity, staffing practices and work environment, family friendliness, salary/benefits and professional development opportunities,” and more.
To Ambler, this recognition aligns with how her division works in its day-to-day mission.
“William &Mary’s institutional values include a commitment to flourishing,” she said. “This recognition from Diverse: Issues in Higher Education celebrates and affirms our ongoing effort to ‘empower those who live, learn, and work here to make choices toward a healthy and fulfilling life.’”
91心頭利 will receive the award at the American College Personnel Association’s annual meeting on March 2-5, 2020, in Nashville, Tennessee.
