Extra Support and Resources
There are a variety of departments and offices on campus that offer emergency assistance to students. At Southern, we look to keep our students safe, comfortable, and with the opportunity to advocate for themselves.
Dean of Student's Office
The Dean of Students Office assists with basic needs (food/housing), technology (WiFi), navigating physical/mental health needs (i.e. surgery, in or out-patient programs), loss of a family member (notifies faculty), and much more. We know your student can be successful and hope you and your student enjoy your time at Southern!

Violence Prevention, Victim Advocacy, and Support (VPAS) Center
The Violence Prevention, Victim Advocacy, and Support Center is dedicated to fostering a campus experience with respect and safety for all students. We know that students may face a variety of emergencies and VPAS is here to provide resources and allow them to advocate for themselves.
Wellbeing Center
The Wellbeing Center is an office that works with a variety of other offices on campus, including Recreation and Fitness, Athletics, Health Services, VPAS, Residence Life, and Counseling Services, to create a holistic wellbeing experience for your student on campus. There are on- and off-campus resources we can connect students with. We also offer in-depth support services, educational programming, and leadership development.
