Careers in Student Affairs Month

October is Careers in Student Affairs Month! 

Please join us for a series of departmental open houses to learn about student services offered at EIU.  See the spaces where services are offered, and meet the people who are here to help you! 

Undergraduate students considering a career in Student Affairs are also encouraged to explore events hosted by the Student Affairs Prep Program and the Department of Counseling and Higher Education. 


Pick up an event passport and collect the initials of a staff member at each event you attend. If you attend five or more events, you can turn in your passport at the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs (Old Main, Room 1031) to be entered into a drawing for prizes.  Passports must be received no later than 4:30 p.m. on Monday, October 31.
