The Department of Student Development worked to help students become competent as adults, ethical, responsible, enthusiastic about their involvement in human affairs, and optimistic about their future, and had a special interest and responsibility in helping students with cultural understanding as relating to ethnicity. The Department of Student Development was dissolved sometime in or after 2000, with its member programs each becoming separate departments within the Division of Student Affairs.
