    Responsibilities

    The Position

    The dean of undergraduate students (dean) leads the Office of the Dean of Undergraduate Students (ODUS), a multifaceted department that provides resources, opportunities, and experiences for undergraduates and the larger Princeton community to develop personal, cultural, and social skills that complement and enrich their academic lives. Reporting to the vice president for Campus Life and serving as a member of the President’s Council, the dean is a trusted voice in leadership deliberations, an advocate for students, and a builder of community who oversees areas of residential life, student-initiated activities and governance, crisis management, and student conduct. The dean supports co-curricular activities and large-scale events and programs that welcome students into the Princeton community, enrich their experience, and celebrate their accomplishments. The dean guides strategic planning, program development, assessment, and goal implementation for all aspects of ODUS in alignment with the Campus Life strategic plan and institutional goals and objectives.

     

     

    The dean works in close collaboration with many offices and stakeholders across Princeton to promote student well-being, enhance learning and leadership beyond the classroom, and cultivate within the student body a sense of community and belonging. The dean maintains an especially strong partnership with the dean of the college, particularly in support of Princeton’s seven residential colleges. The dean also works closely with other Campus Life deans and directors (particularly the executive director of University Health Services, the director of Counseling and Psychological Services, and the director of Athletics) and with the assistant vice president for Public Safety. The dean chairs the Faculty-Student Committee on Discipline and serves on various committees and task forces. The dean is responsible for a team of 37 staff members, five campus buildings, and over 100 student organization and performance spaces.

    The successful candidate will bring a deep knowledge of current and emerging thinking and best practices in student affairs and exceptional administrative, financial, and managerial acumen.
