Upperclass Deans Office
Deans support and advise students on all issues relevant to a successful
college experience – e.g., roommate & family conflicts, balancing social
activities, campus adjustment/environment difficulties, medical/health
problems. They also help students navigate Dartmouth policies and
procedures. Ultimately, the role of the Upperclass Deans in the
development of Dartmouth students is to help them to function independently –
to be able to locate resources, to access information and to act in their own
interests.

first-year students to the Dartmouth College environment. Critical to the
adjustment of first-year students is support and encouragement for their
intellectual engagement, creativity, and preparation for responsible

effect a transition from the environments of the home and secondary school to
the academic, social and residential life of the College. In addition,
the First-Year Office familiarizes students with our community's principles,
standards, and expectations.
