Each office, student organization, living learning program, and community offers a unique transformative context where powerful results are possible through goal setting, pathway building, and agency instilling.

The AVP oversees and convenes student advisory groups to the Vice President for Student Affairs, including Order of the Gavel and Core Leadership. The AVP is involved in shared governance, and serves as the Senior Advisor to the Undergraduate Student Senate, with advisors and staff that report through VT Engage.
An intentional approach encourages students to grow in the Aspirations for Student Learning. Indicators of the position's success include measurable increases in student engagement in campus life (across all student demographics), evidence of student engagement, impact on student well-being and success, and the creation of meaningful partnerships with university and community organizations, and Virginia Tech campuses in Roanoke and the Greater Washington, DC Metro area.
