While advisors confer with students about courses and
educational experiences, students are responsible for
defining the content of their academic program and making
progress toward an academic degree. Advisors will assist
students in designing an appropriate course of study that will
satisfy requirements for graduation as well as offer
information on particular courses and University rules and
procedures.
