About the Office of Student Affairs

The Office of Student Affairs provides programs, facilities, and services that extend and enhance the student experience at Case. Office members work to collaborate actively with students, faculty, and staff to develop programs and services that enhance the quality of life at the university and foster a just and humane campus. Staff members also encourage students to develop ethically, intellectually, socially, and physically. Students learn to act responsibly at the campus level, while embracing leadership and involvement on and off campus.

	Crisis Intervention Crisis intervention is an important function of the Vice President for Student Affairs as well as staff members. Students who have personal or family problems are urged to contact the staff and communicate their needs or concerns. Our goal is to listen, intervene if appropriate, or refer the student to other resources. Students' concerns remain confidential.
	Cultural Activities Ticket Drawing Ticket drawings for the Cleveland Orchestra are open to all Case students. The drawings are held weekly during the fall and spring semesters. Pairs of tickets are available for the Thursday evening performances and passes are occasionally available for "open rehearsals" on Thursday mornings. Students may sign up on Monday and Tuesday; drawings are held on Wednesday morning. The winner's list is posted in the Office of Student Affairs at noon on Wednesday.
	Judicial/Disciplinary Process The Office of Student Affairs administers the university's judicial/disciplinary process. This process is designed to be a learning experience which will foster the development of ethical, responsible, dynamic young adults who have a positive impact on both the Case community and community at large.
	Multicultural Affairs The Office of Student Affairs works with students, faculty, and staff to coordinate programs and services that support the recruitment, retention, and placement of under-represented students.
	Student Research The office designs and implements research projects to gain a better understanding of student life. The results are shared with students, staff, faculty, and administrators.
