WSU’s Division of Student Affairs plans to make it easier for students to find and access university resources in the upcoming fall semester.
Earlier in the month, Student Affairs leaders met with ASWSU leaders to discuss ways to communicate information to students more effectively. Kim Holapa, associate vice president of WSU’s External Engagement and Strategic Initiatives, said the meeting allowed student leaders to propose changes they would like to see.
“The meeting itself was great,” Holapa said. “We always really appreciate student feedback and letting us know what is and what’s not working for students.”
She said Student Affairs plans to incorporate ASWSU leaders’ suggestions to make resources more accessible, including enhancing click and search engine optimization. Plans to improve SEO, consolidate information and update all the Student Affairs website pages were already underway.
