The Division of Student Development and Academic Services’ role is to enhance and support students learning experience here at UW-L.  We work closely with faculty, staff, community members, alumni and most importantly, students to provide quality programs and services which promote learning, leadership, involvement, service and the celebration of diversity. The Division includes a number of departments which includes: Child Care Center, Counseling and Testing, Disability Resource Services, Student Health Center, Intercollegiate Athletics, Multicultural Student Services, Student Support Services, Recreational Sports, Residence Life, Student Life, University Centers, Upward Bound, and the Dean of Students office.  The staff of the Division is truly student-centered and concerned about the holistic development of the student.  I encourage all students to get involved in their education, both in and outside of the classroom, and make the most of their experience at UW-L.  Please know that the staff and myself are here to assist you and do not hesitate to contact us.
