To make continuous improvements within the Division, the following structured planning and reporting cycle has been in place <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fully formed departmental plans are due June 30 for the following fiscal year. AVC Sharon Ann Downs is available to work closely with departments to ensure the goals for the coming year are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, time-based, inclusive, and equitable, and that the assessments are meaningful and will lead to continuous improvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The departmental goals must vertically align with the University\u2019s strategic plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In late 2022 the University established the following goals for the institution:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goal 1 \u2013 ACCESS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Increase student access to transformative educational experiences that are affordable, versatile, and relevant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goal 2 \u2013 EXPERIENCE<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Improve the student, faculty, and staff experience by cultivating an engaging campus community that promotes diversity, equity, and inclusivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goal 3 \u2013 ATTAINMENT<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Strengthen educational attainment through academic programs leading to social and economic mobility and the achievement of students\u2019 aspirational goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goal 4 \u2013 RESEARCH<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Expand the institution\u2019s applied research footprint to provide advanced educational opportunities and to broaden external impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goal 5- COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Enhance community engagement through partnerships and collaborations involving faculty, staff, and students that address local, state, and regional needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each Student Affairs department* develops an annual plan by June 30 for the following fiscal year. These include at least three goals, with timelines and responsible parties, as well as detailed assessment plans for the year. All goals are aligned with both Student Affairs priorities and with UA Little Rock goals. Templates are provided to more easily complete the task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* with the exception of our contracted vendors, Campus Bookstore and Campus Dining<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Annual reports for Student Affairs departments are available on the Student Affairs website<\/a>, as well as curated reports in PDF format that include information from the entire division. Student Affairs prints enough of the curated reports to share with various stakeholders including UA Little Rock\u2019s Cabinet, Deans, and donors. They help to tell the story of the good work done by Student Affairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Assessment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Student Learning Assessments<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

At least one assessment by each department should focused on learning and be mapped to a CAS (Council for the Advancement of Standards in Higher Education) Student Outcome Domain:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Knowledge acquisition, construction, integration, and application<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Cognitive complexity<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Intrapersonal development<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Interpersonal competence<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Humanitarianism and civic engagement<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Practical competence<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    For more in-depth information and learning outcome examples, see the CAS Student Learning and Developmental Outcomes<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Operational Assessments<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    At least one goal per department must be focused on improving their program or department, which we identify as an operational assessment. A minimum of three assessments are planned per department. For the third one, the directors have a choice of a student learning or operational assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Reporting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Departmental annual reports are generally due July 15 for the previous year. Included in these reports are the results of assessments and action plans for creating continuous improvement with the results. Directors should work with their peers to read the reports for clarity, completeness, and errors before the deadline. AVC Downs meets with the directors on an as-needed basis to wrap up any loose ends. Senior leaders must sign off on all annual reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Continuous and relentless improvement has been a focus of the Division of Student Affairs for years. By making data-informed decisions, we are constantly improving our services to students and to the campus community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Leadership is much more than your position in an organization. Knowing how your specific personality traits impact interactions with others can help you lead others throughout your spheres of influence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-personal-networking-strategies-and-relationship-driven-networking-presented-by-edie-stewart\">Personal Networking Strategies and Relationship-Driven Networking, presented by Edie Stewart<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This session focused on the power of relationship-driven networking, emphasizing that authentic professional connections are built over time through trust, patience, and mutual respect. Rather than relying on transactional interactions or focusing solely on job titles, professionals should lead with value and proactively offer support, mentorship, or introductions to create a resilient and diverse network ecosystem. Ultimately, successful networking requires consistent, thoughtful communication and intentional, permission-based introductions to foster shared success without relationship burnout.\u00a0<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-time-for-another-look-at-self-care-presented-by-greg-adams\">Time for Another Look at Self Care, presented by Greg Adams<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sustainable self-care for professionals exposed to human suffering was presented as requiring a shift from individual fixes to intentionality and organizational culture change. It was stressed that self-care alone could not compensate for unsustainable workloads. The session promoted moving beyond draining empathy to motivating compassion , encouraging the adoption of “marathon intentionality”\u2014including planning, pacing, and support \u2014and reframing personal health as an ethical responsibility. The core message emphasized the need for a supportive, accountable “microculture” to prevent burnout and sustain effective care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Story, presented by Mayor Frank Scott<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A presentation by Little Rock Mayor Frank Scott about his journey in leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" src=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/studentaffairs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/202\/2026\/07\/Cohort-5-and-Frank.png\" alt=\"Group image of Cohort 5 all facing the camera in a row with Mayor Frank Scott in the middle.

Radical Candor (Kim Scott’s work) was covered in the discussion, which encourages challenging people directly while also showing that you care about them personally.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-people-politics-and-influence-leading-from-the-middle-without-losing-yourself-by-mia-phillips\">People, Politics, and Influence: Leading from the Middle Without Losing Yourself, by Mia Phillips<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The presentation outlined the power of relationship-driven networking, emphasizing that authentic professional connections are built over time through trust, patience, and mutual respect. Rather than relying on transactional interactions or focusing solely on job titles, professionals should lead with value and proactively offer support, resources, or introductions to create a resilient and diverse network ecosystem. Ultimately, successful networking requires consistent, thoughtful communication and intentional, permission-based actions to foster shared success without relationship burnout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-feedback-from-participants\">Feedback from Participants<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Having a better understanding of empathy vs compassion along with the new information Mr. Adams highlighted will (hopefully) allow me to slow down, pace myself, and set a plan so that I am better able to assist. Oh, I’ve already ordered Kitchen Table Wisdom! Thank you, Sharon, for all that goes into these sessions!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>So far, I have really enjoyed the Leadership Academy experience. I think it has been very informative, engaging, and helpful for professional development. I appreciate that the sessions include real-life experiences, interactive activities, and opportunities to hear different leadership perspectives. I also enjoy being able to connect and collaborate with people from different departments across campus. It has helped me think more about leadership, communication, and how I can continue growing professionally.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I have really enjoyed the Leadership Academy so far. Each session has provided something different that I can apply to my work, and I appreciate hearing from different presenters. I also enjoy getting to meet people from across campus and learn from their experiences.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I’ve really enjoyed it, especially the development of professional relationships. We are so often stuck in our “silos” and it’s beneficial to make professional connections on campus.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I SUPER appreciate that we did introductions via email before meeting in person. One of the first slides that talked about putting phones on DND really set the tone for the “vibe” of the cohort and a safe sharing space.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Love it. I thoroughly enjoy the collaboration, the speakers, and professional development. I’ll miss it when it’s over.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I love it more each time we meet. Perhaps our cohort is getting more comfortable with each other or we appreciate doing something different in the day. Thank you for making it an enjoyable learning experience!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The fifth cohort of the Student Affairs Leadership Academy began in February of 2026 and had 10 participants.

Key educational sessions focused on sustainable self-care, reframing it as an ethical responsibility tied to organizational culture change and “marathon intentionality,” rather than just individual fixes for unsustainable workloads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Participants universally enjoyed the program, finding the topics “incredibly interesting and thought-provoking.” They appreciated the diversity of content and speakers, valued the new perspectives gained from group discussions, and found the change of environment helpful for approaching work problems differently. They expressed an eagerness to “soak up all of the knowledge.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-participants\">Participants<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Anthony Buttrum, Financial Aid and Scholarships<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bailey Gambill, International Student Services<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Blake McMillen, Military Student Success<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Courtney Hicks, Student Experience Center<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gillian Whitney, Disability Resource Center<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Kiara Goodwin, Donaghey Student Center<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Kate Lincourt, Office of Institutional Research and Analytics<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ryan Nix, Office of Institutional Research and Analytics<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shannon Maxwell, office of the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-educational-sessions\">Educational Sessions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Leading When You\u2019re Not in Charge, presented by Sharon Downs<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people think the goal of leadership is to be in charge of others. Leadership is much more than your position in an organization. Knowing how your specific personality traits impact interactions with others can help you lead others throughout your spheres of influence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Connection not Perfection: Practicing Authentic Leadership, presented by Kristen McIntyre<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Performing well is the mark of a good employee, but extreme focus on performance can keep us from being authentic communicators in the workplace. Authentic leaders guide communication in order to create authentic and equitable workplace relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Story, presented by Mayor Frank Scott<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>A presentation by Little Rock Mayor Frank Scott about his journey in leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-time-for-another-look-at-self-care-presented-by-greg-adams\">Time for Another Look at Self Care, presented by Greg Adams<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Sustainable self-care for professionals exposed to human suffering was presented as requiring a shift from individual fixes to intentionality and organizational culture change. It was stressed that self-care alone could not compensate for unsustainable workloads. The session promoted moving beyond draining empathy to motivating compassion , encouraging the adoption of “marathon intentionality”\u2014including planning, pacing, and support \u2014and reframing personal health as an ethical responsibility. The core message emphasized the need for a supportive, accountable “microculture” to prevent burnout and sustain effective care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Leading Your Own Organization, presented by Trakenya Dobbins<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Every person can be considered an organization that affects others in the world. Developing a personal mission statement and learning how to set and achieve goals that align with that mission help you stay true to your purpose in work and life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-feedback-from-participants\">Feedback from Participants<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I appreciate the diversity of content, topics, and speakers brought in.

Some thoughtful proposals were submitted as part of the process, often reflecting new ways of thinking about leadership and mental health post-covid.\n<h3>Participants<\/h3>\n<ul>\n \t<li>Emily Austin, TRIO<\/li>\n \t<li>Jordan Breckenridge, Admissions<\/li>\n \t<li>Jordan Brown, Counseling<\/li>\n \t<li>Diane Dotson, Health<\/li>\n \t<li>Kim Herron, Financial Aid<\/li>\n \t<li>Rachel Mercado, Counseling<\/li>\n \t<li>Keely Reeves, DRC<\/li>\n \t<li>Elizabeth Roshell, Campus Living<\/li>\n \t<li>Madison Schalk, Admissions<\/li>\n \t<li>Julie Shelby, DRC<\/li>\n \t<li>Tiffani Silvey, CLC<\/li>\n \t<li>Camryn Wade, DSC<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Educational Sessions<\/h3>\n<h5>Leading When You\u2019re Not in Charge, presented by Sharon Downs<\/h5>\nMany people think the goal of leadership is to be in charge of others. Leadership is much more than your position in an organization. Knowing how your specific personality traits impact interactions with others can help you lead others throughout your spheres of influence.\n<h5>Implicit Bias and Its Everyday Impact, presented by Dr. Sara Tariq, M.D.<\/h5>\nDiversity is represented in a group in many ways. The various differences between people make groups more productive, creative, and innovative. If an individual is open and committed to working with diverse people, they can develop cultural humility over time. While on that journey, individuals will certainly encounter their own implicit biases. Learning how to see, accept, and manage their own biases is the key to developing healthy relationships with others.\n<h5>Connection not Perfection: Practicing Authentic Leadership, presented by Kristen McIntyre<\/h5>\nPerforming well is the mark of a good employee, but extreme focus on performance can keep us from being authentic communicators in the workplace. Authentic leaders guide communication in order to create authentic and equitable workplace relationships.\n<h5>Leading Your Own Organization, presented by Trakenya Dobbins<\/h5>\nEvery person can be considered an organization that affects others in the world. Developing a personal mission statement and learning how to set and achieve goals that align with that mission help you stay true to your purpose in work and life.\n<h5>Professional Networking Basics, presented by Bob Denman<\/h5>\nProfessionals know how to network. It is a skill that can be learned. Knowing why it is important and how it can help you meet your long-term career goals might get you out of your comfort zone.\n<h5>My Story, presented by Mayor Frank Scott<\/h5>\nA presentation by Little Rock Mayor Frank Scott about his journey in leadership.\n<h3>Teams and Proposals<\/h3>\n<ul>\n \t<li>Team 1 (Tiffani Silvey, Kim Herron, Keely Reeves) proposed the \u201cBuilding Staff Morale Initiative,\u201d featuring three levels of staff appreciation to help staff feel connected to each other and others outside the division.<\/li>\n \t<li>Team 2 (Jordan Brown, Rachel Hunt, Emily Austin) proposed the \u201cMaking Space Initiative,\u201d where the university offers both employees and students with mental health applications to increase awareness of mental health apps, increase the usage of mental health apps, and decrease student stress, improve mood, attentiveness, and sleep quality.<\/li>\n \t<li>Team 3 (Julie Shelby, Jordan Breckenridge, Diane Dotson, Madison Shalk) proposed the \u201cExpect More Resources Campaign\u201d to improve enrolled student success and retention by using engaging signage, giveaways, and social media marketing in order to highlight and promote available on-campus resources for students.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Feedback from Participants<\/h3>\n<blockquote>\n<ul>\n \t<li>“The Leadership Academy is a great program.\u00a0 I enjoyed meeting colleagues and discussing the topics provided.”<\/li>\n \t<li>“I find the Leadership Academy sessions insightful and inspiring. I am excited to engage with leaders and for the opportunity to be involved with improvements in the campus community.”<\/li>\n \t<li>“The guest speaker lineup has been world class.\u00a0 Thank you!”<\/li>\n \t<li>“I have enjoyed learning from the speakers in each session. Having the chance to spend time with the Mayor and learn from his experiences was so meaningful. I have enjoyed getting the time out to reflect on leadership and the chance to make a difference at UA Little Rock!”<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The third cohort of the Student Affairs Leadership Academy began in December of 2021 and had 12 participants.
