VPSA and AVP Colleague Conversations: Planning for Financial Uncertainty
Virtual Engagement Events Supporting the Profession AVP or "Number Two" Senior Level VP for Student Affairs
February 18, 2021 4:00PM-5:00PM ET
Difficult times call for deep conversation. We invite you to participate in the ongoing series of VPSA- and AVP-exclusive Colleague Conversations, which are designed to provide opportunities for senior student affairs officers to discuss, analyze, critique, and strategize with peers across the profession. Free of charge and exclusively for Vice Presidents and AVPs who are current NASPA members, these conversations will allow for discrete sharing of concerns and ideas that will allow us to meet the difficult moment in which we find ourselves. These sessions are not recorded in order to promote the freest sharing of ideas and challenges by participants.

COVID has had an impact on such fundamental things as enrollment; safety of students, faculty, and staff; housing occupancy; dining hall options; recreational and athletic activities; hiring; and more. And all these things have something in common–financial implications. During this Colleague Conversation, we will explore working with the CFO and/or Provost (whoever controls the purse strings) to ensure that Student Affairs is a priority, advocating for divisional budget when money is tight, aligning budget decisions with strategic priorities (at divisional and institutional levels), anticipating budget cuts that may come mid-year or in FY 22, and working with staff when raises or opportunities for advancements may not be possible within budget constraints.
