Welcome

Welcome to the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point. On behalf of the Division of Student Affairs, I want to take this opportunity to introduce you to our campus community. Throughout the Division of Student Affairs you will find professionals who care about students and their personal and academic success while they are at UWSP.

The Division of Student Affairs enhances the diverse educational, wellness, and personal development needs of our students and the University community. Our mission statement reflects the values that guide our collective work to support an environment of mutual respect and integrity that encourages students to achieve optimal potential as individuals, scholars, and citizens in partnership with the university and the community.

I have only mentioned a few attributes of the Student Affairs Division; you will observe a number of services that will assist you with your entry into the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point’s family. Retention and ultimately graduation are my goals for every single student. Our primary focus is your success while you are here. Give us a chance to respond to any concerns you may have and always feel free to contact me directly at 715-346-2481. I also welcome electronic correspondences, so please email me at althomps@uwsp.edu.

I hope that you use your time here to establish a personal standard of engagement, community involvement and leadership. Please enjoy the moments of developing rich and diverse friendships that will sustain you throughout your life.

Best wishes for a successful year!

Al S. Thompson, Jr.
