Welcome
A warm welcome to your La Sierra University campus family. We are so pleased that you have chosen this as the academic community of faith in which you will invest your time, energy, and much of your intellect. This is a unique year and you are about to make history!! If it is true that COVID19 has entered our reality, it is also true that we will lean in to all this moment will bring and set ourselves to the growth it will provide. As your Vice President for Student Life my role is filled with complexity. I will be both your advocate and your accountability partner, your fan and your developer, your visionary companion and your realist. I will invite you to always be looking ahead to the future you are designing, while remaining attentive to the present moment and ways in which your choices will impact that future. This is an exciting and history-making year, so welcome to all that is before you!
The team in the Division of Student Life will be there to serve you in so many ways—as resident hall deans, athletic directors, health care providers, safety and security awareness, social calendar, student advocate through S A L S U, international student care, emotional support through counseling, your spiritual conscience and so much more! It is a big task! Yet you will find us committed to seeing you succeed academically, socially, physically, and spiritually.
Remember you are now part of a much larger family...a La Sierra University family. As it happens with all families you will have good times and bad times, but the one thing you can count on is that you will never be alone. We are here to help you succeed... that is our goal. Dream big: This is the place to try it! Be encouraged: “He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it.” Stay connected: This journey has twists and turns and the larger your network, the safer you’ll be. Pray hard: The greatest battles you will face will not be won with good grades, great talent, or Tik Tok friends, but rather on your knees in communion with your Creator.
May His strength carry you this academic year.
