Student Involvement
The Richmond College Dean's Office sponsors a number of opportunities to become involved in meaningful leadership opportunities outside of the classroom. The University of Richmond experience is both curricular and extracurricular. In order to develop as a "whole person", obtaining practical involvement by participating in student leadership is invaluable.
Each of the leadership areas mentioned below provides the participant with the ability to make a substantial impact on student life at the University of Richmond. One of the benefits of the coordinate system is that men and women have the opportunity to become involved in each of these areas on an equal basis.
By assigning professional staff advisors to each of these opportunities, the Richmond College Dean's Office works hard to ensure that these involvements are meaningful. The specific opportunities are:
- Richmond College Honor Council
Serve as a member of the University's Honor System charged with the enforcement of the University's Honor Code.
