The Student Affairs Programmers Group
The Student Affairs Programmers Group
Established in 2012 by the Division of Student Affairs, the Programmers Group is made up of representatives from diverse units across campus who collaborate to plan, schedule, and market campus events. Working together, this group has established best practices in event planning, launched the RamPulse student engagement platform to connect students to opportunities on campus, pioneered new assessment tools and practices, developed protocols for tracking attendance, and provided a space for generating creative solutions to problems. These efforts have encouraged partners to focus on the University’s core values and learning outcomes in programming and resulted in cost-savings to the University, new collaborative partnerships and resource-sharing, and stronger events and student engagement across campus.
The list of events found in the below link was compiled by members of the Programmers Group, representatives from diverse units across campus who collaborate to plan, schedule, and market campus events.
