Greetings from Student Success!

Dean of Student SuccessMy name is Dr. Farmer, the Dean for Student Success. As a first-generation college student, I was very nervous about navigating college. When I began my collegiate journey, I didn’t know what a credit hour was, how vital internships are, how to decide on a major, or how to find my network of support. Like many first-generation college students, I wasn’t able to rely upon my parents for advice on how to navigate life at college since they had not attended themselves.

Luckily for you, At SEU, we have a welcoming community of faculty, staff, peer mentors, and tutors who are eager to support you. We are here to cheer you on, guide you in the right direction, and remind you that you belong here! My door is always open. I would love to meet you to hear how things are going and help answer any questions you might have. If I can’t help you directly, I will find someone that can. I want you to remember that your success here depends on your willingness to ask questions and lean into our resources.

I oversee Academic Advising, Retention Initiatives, Accessibility Services, Experiential Learning (career services, internships, student employment, etc.), Social Work Services, and Tutoring/Academic Success. Whether you are the first in your family to attend college, or not, I am committed to providing you with resources that support your journey toward completing your degree! Please do not be afraid to introduce yourself and ask your peers, faculty, and staff for extra help. You can do it, we are here to help!
