Welcome from the
Dean of Students

Welcome to the Dean of Students' Office at Whittier College. Our web pages are specially designed to serve prospective, entering, and current students and their families about the many facets of Student Life at the College.

Students

The Dean of Students' Office coordinates all aspects of the co-curricular experience. The primary mission of our Division is to provide a high quality experience that not only compliments, yet enhances learning taking place in the classroom. We actively facilitate and promote this concept through programs, facilities, resources and overarching support for the total or "whole" student.

The Office of the Dean of Students oversees and coordinates the Office of Residential Life, Counseling Services, Disability Services, Health Services, Learning Support Services, Career Services, Student Activities, Cultural Center and an array of administrative and student personnel who assist in each of these specialized areas.

Whittier students are highly encouraged to become involved in a multitude of leadership events, seminars, activities, clubs and organizations. We are confident that each member of our community will contribute to the physical, emotional, intellectual and social development of the campus.

Whittier College is a very special community that fosters an environment which embraces diversity and develops within each individual an awareness of personal development, character and responsibility.

Members of the Student Life staff take great pride in working as collaborative partners with our students. I hope you will take full advantage of our web pages and please do not hesitate to contact us if we can be of assistance to you.

Sincerely,

Jeanne Ortiz
Dean of Students
