Staff in the Division of Student Affairs, Equity and Diversity traded spaces to consolidate the Center for Advising and Career Development (CACD) in Lighty 180, 190 and 160. This unit combines the former Student Advising and Learning Center and Career Services. The move minimizes the number of locations students must go to obtain academic and career advising.
Staff members in Lighty 260 include those in New Student Programs, Student Conduct, Communications, Student Support Services, the College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP), and the Ronald E. McNair Achievement Program.
