Richmond College

Richmond College was established in 1840 as a "seminary of learning" for young men. More than 175 years later, we are still preparing students to contribute to and succeed in a complex world.Learn More About the College

We believe that our students can discover their purpose through academic and co-curricular exploration. We encourage them to push outside of their comfort zones, immerse themselves in all that the University has to offer, and strive toward a personal definition of success.Discover our Programs

We believe in respect for self, others, and our community. We encourage our students to care for one another and to practice self-care. We challenge our students to be aware of and take responsibility for the impact of their choices and actions on others, and to engage in difficult conversations with respect and civility.

We believe that gender is part of our identity, and we promote positive and authentic expressions of masculinity. We support our students as they discover and live into their core values and strive to live their lives as genuinely as possible.More about Masculinity

What Does a Dean Do?

The Dean of Richmond College, Joe Boehman, is responsible for the support, mentorship, advising, and care of our students, for helping create thriving and inclusive communities, and for the direction and vision of the College overall. Dean Boehman serves as the chief academic officer of the College, handling routine and exceptional academic requests, petitions, and other matters.

Associate Dean Dan Fabian works closely with Dean Boehman to advise and mentor individual students, offer College-specific celebrations and programs, and support a variety of leadership and community opportunities. We encourage students to come talk with us about whatever is on your minds – the deans are available to discuss thorny problems, listen to sudden bursts of inspiration, provide guidance during challenging times, and share in life’s joys, both great and small.

We are here to support our students as they become the best versions of themselves.
