Mission
UNLV’s annual Student Affairs Conference provides a unique professional development opportunity that brings together Student Affairs staff, graduate assistants, and collaborating faculty.
About the Conference
The Vice President for Student Affairs, Dr. Juanita Fain, created the conference initiative in 2009 in response to the training needs of staff within the Division of Student Affairs. A conference committee was also established that year and charged with designing and organizing this annual event. The conference has grown into a coveted experience that fosters a learning environment and encourages collaboration between the Division of Student Affairs staff and the campus community.
