OVERVIEW
The philosophy of Student Services is that student-centered, student-focused services contribute to the overall success of
each LCSC student. Student Services’ function is to identify
qualified students to enroll at the college and help provide the
support necessary to facilitate both the enrollment process and
the transition to college life. Networking and partnering with
all
members of the campus community, the goal of Student Services
is to promote academic and personal success.
Student Services is made up of nine key service units: New
Student Recruitment, International Student Services, Financial
Aid, Admission/Registrar, Native American/Minority Student
Services, TRiO Academic Services, Career and Advising
Services, Student Life (including Student Health Services,
Judicial
Affairs, Student Counseling, ASLCSC, and Student Activities),
and Educational Talent Search.
STUDENT DEVELOPMENT CURRICULUM
The Dean of Student Services serves as the official chair of the
Student Development curriculum, which includes co-curricular
classes (e.g., student government internships) and student
success classes including “Introduction to College Studies,”
“New Student Orientation,” and the courses provided by the
TRiO programs.
INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT GRANT
A portion of student fees is allocated to the category of
Institutional Development and is used to augment selected
educational activities. These funds are to be used solely to
enhance the educational experience of students enrolled in any
Lewis-Clark State College program.
NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION
New Student Orientation is a required program for all new,
degree-seeking students. The program is scheduled during the
week immediately preceding the beginning of the Fall and Spring
terms. Students can earn one college credit by registering for
SD
107 - New Student Orientation (or SD 307 for transfer students)
and attending the day’s activities. At New Student Orientation,
students are provided with information about key campus
services. Students are also introduced to faculty members who
teach in their intended major. Family and friends are treated to
special sessions in which they are advised about creating a
strong
personal support system with and for the new students.
THE MOSS FAMILY FUND
The Moss Family Fund is designated in honor of Mrs. Oma
Moss and the late Van L. Moss. Mrs. Moss was employed by
the college for twenty-three years and Mr. Moss was a former
faculty member.
The Moss Fund program is for students with an emergency/crisis. The temporary loan is always for $50 with a time limit
for repayment of one month. When requesting a loan, the
student will sign a repayment agreement. As long as the student
is in compliance with repayment (i.e., repaid the loan) they may
receive a new loan.
Loan request forms must be approved by the Dean of Student
Services or his/her designee. Loans are available to
degree-seeking
students only.
