The Office of Student Involvement (OSI) advises student groups and their leaders in planning the year's educational and social events, facilitates collaboration, and promotes student leadership and skills development.

OSI encourages experiential learning in order to challenge students to become well-rounded and engaged lifelong leaders. Our mission is to develop ethical, articulate, and effective leaders by helping students build leadership skills through communication, budget management, delegation, and the coordination of event and group logistics.
