Student Life and Services
Student Services is the department that fosters the intellectual, social, ethical, and personal development of students, preparing them to become engaged and constructive members of a diverse, dynamic, and global society within and out of the university. The department advocates students’ needs, facilitates student involvement, and encourages students to accept responsibilities of membership in a campus community to explore personal interests through clubs, associations and focus groups. Additionally, there is strong emphasis on various health, safety and fitness programs, as well as recreational and educational activities. The KU Student Handbook provides further details on the activities and support provided by the Student Services department. For policies and processes concerning the Medical Program in the College of Medicine and Health Sciences, please refer to the CMHS Medical Student Handbook.
