Student Affairs
Dear Student:
Welcome to CSU Channel Islands (CI) where we place our students at the center of their educational experience. You have selected one of the most innovative and family-oriented institutions in the nation. CI will provide you with a stimulating curricular and co-curricular learning experience which will be complemented by our commitment to keep you, the student, at the center of our University mission.
The Division of Student Affairs’ (DSA) programs and services were created to assist you as you matriculate through CI. These programs have been intentionally created and designed to enhance your university learning experience. CI encourages an interactive and expansive learning environment where all students, regardless of their background, skill level or interests, can exchange ideas and philosophies in a civil and collegial manner while celebrating diversity as a source of renewal and vitality.
As a CSU Channel Islands’ Dolphin, you are encouraged to experience the total University. You chose CI because you wanted to experience something different. In the Division of Student Affairs, students indeed make the difference! What you choose to do, and the impact which you make at CI, are simply up to you! In accepting CI as your University you have, in effect, agreed to our core values of collaboration, commitment, integrity, diversity, and excellence.
Congratulations on choosing one of America’s most exciting and innovative universities, CSU Channel Islands! As a Dolphin you will experience the “CI Way” as well as what it means when we say “we are CI!”
Sincerely,
Wm. Gregory Sawyer, Ph.D.
Vice President
