The Student Affairs Employee Enrichment and Development (SEED) Committee is dedicated to creating a culture that enriches the experience and professional development of all employees throughout the Division.
The work of the Committee is focused on the following goals and objectives:
- Developing a sense of community within the Division
Community: a sense of belonging to the Division of Student Affairs at all levels; feeling connected to all departments in the Division; understanding how all departments contribute to the goals, mission, vision and values of the Division. As part of its mission, SEED seeks to create a sense of community within the Division of Student Affairs. To accomplish this, the SEED Team will design activities and programs that meet the needs of Division employees utilizing the results of the SEED Assessment, “Planting Your Thoughts.” SEED plans to host various activities for the Division, enabling employees from its seven departments to get to know one another in informal settings. From ice cream socials to community service projects, SEED hopes to make your experience within the Division worthwhile.
