A short paragraph or two describing what you do at the college

I am responsible for a broad range of administrative duties supporting instruction. I administer academic policies and advise faculty, staff, and students on policy matters related to the academic program. My duties consist of the following: management of the admissions process, student and alumni tracking, course scheduling and space allocation; maintaining degree requirements and accreditation standards; and coordinating the submission and development process for new course offerings, new programs, and program revisions. I maintain extensive knowledge of University and College policies and procedures and am able to interpret and apply them to support faculty and student success.
