I am pleased to announce that Dr. Lawrence Nightingale, the evening and weekend coordinator for the Woodbridge Campus, has been appointed to serve as interim director for OSRR. The interim director will report to the AVP for student support services and will provide oversight for student conduct & integrity, the student ombuds program and academic standing-related functions including withdrawals for mitigating circumstances.
