We’re here for you! Did you know that Baker College employs a group of individuals specifically dedicated to your success and engagement with a goal to foster an exciting and safe student life? We are passionate about ensuring that you are the center of every decision. We are advocates for services and programs that improve the student experience and assist you in navigating academic policies and procedures.

From beginning to end—we’re here for you! We welcome you back to campus each fall, connecting you with clubs, events and other extracurricular activities. Our favorite and celebrated time is the commencement ceremony where we honor our graduates as this is the ultimate reflection of student success.

With that in mind, we’d like to introduce you to the Baker College Directors of Student Affairs. We’re a diverse team that draws on many years of experience as well as our personal and professional interests in our daily work. We believe our diverse background makes us the best team to serve all students.
