Creating inclusive and engaging learning for international students works best when we have strong collaborations and communications centered around the student experience. Below is information about liaison roles for ISSS and our campus partners.
ISSS Liaison
ISSS staff who are liaisons will meet annually with college or units to:
- Learn more your college/unit and staff
- Identify themes of what is working well, challenges, and opportunities
- Create pathways for understanding, awareness, or additional support
ISSS staff listed below can be contacted when there is an individual student issue that needs to be resolved and there has not been an established ISSS advisor to date.
College and Student Services Liaison
Liaisons share relevant information and training opportunities with their college or unit.
If a training or discussion is needed for your college, we ask that your liaison assist in setting up a date and time with the appropriate people.
