Dr. Keith Betts serves as the Vice President for Student Affairs.  We'll talk with Dr. Betts about just what Student Affairs IS, why it's an important component on any college campus, and what you can look forward to from the folks in Student Affairs now and in the near future.

We've spoken with the academic deans, but there is another dean you need to know - the Dean of Students, Dr. Walter Cramer.  We'll talk about HIS job: how it differs from academic deans, what Student Affairs is, why students might need to see him, how he works with student involvement,  and other information that will help you understand this role on campus.

The idea of international study is one that many students don't often take a look at. Today we'll be talking with two people who'd like to change that.

Dr. Chris Kukk dissed the PR department at the university, so we cut him out of this pod about the Honors Program, which instead features associate director Jessica Lin. Then Chantel joins Paul (29:00) to break down upcoming events at WCSU.

The last of our Academic Deans in our series of campus administrators is the Interim Dean of Professional Studies, Dr. Joan Palladino. While she's only been Dean for a short time, she's put in loads of time in the nursing department over the years, and will have plenty to tell us about the School of Professional Studies.

We hear a lot about the topic of Wellness, but how many of us really understand it, or know about all the opportunities to practice it here at WCSU?
