Student Affairs
green dot This is where YOU come in. My role is to be a facilitator in the College of Engineering for improving student affairs. You can help me do this by keeping me aware of the issues that are making things hard for you, by sharing your concerns w ith me, and by letting me know things that the College can do to make you more successful here at UTA. I will also let you know about opportunities and activities available to you as well at the Student Affairs website.
Come talk to me. My door (or at least my e-mail tiernan@uta.edu ) is always open.
In case you are nervous about talking to me directly, I will also set up some ways to contact me anonymously so you can still share your thoughts. Please also use the suggestion boxes in Nedderman and Woolf Halls to communicate.
