UTSA Undergraduate Orientation Advisory Board seeks program proposals
(Sept. 4, 2014) -- The UTSA Undergraduate Orientation Advisory Board (OAB) is seeking proposals for modifications to student orientation programming that will be implemented in the cycle beginning spring 2015.
Proposals intended for implementation during orientation sessions for students who will enter UTSA during spring 2015, summer 2015 and fall 2015 are due Sept. 19, 2014, to George Norton, UTSA associate vice president for admissions, orientation and family programs.
The OAB is chaired by Fred Hample, UTSA executive director for student operations, Downtown Campus, and consists of representatives from teaching faculty, Academic Advising, Testing Services, Academic Support and Undergraduate Studies, Downtown Campus, New Student Admissions, Residence Life, Business Affairs, Orientation and Family Programs, student representatives, and Development.
The Orientation Advisory Board will respond to proposals with recommendations during October 2014 and, as part of their deliberations, may communicate with or host discussions with proposal authors and other key constituents. The OAB will make recommendations to the associate vice president for admissions, orientation and family programs and to the vice president for student affairs.
There is no mandated format for proposal submissions. However, previous successful proposals have generally addressed these topics:
- Purpose
- Goals
- Proposal Details/Strategy
- Resources
- Summary
