Dear Student:
I want to extend to you a warm welcome to the
University of Arkansas at Monticello (UAM). I believe our University to
be a special place and a special community. I hope you can experience
the distinctiveness of our quaint, but progressive campus.
The pursuit of your academic degree is the major purpose of your
attendance at UAM. However, the University abounds with opportunities
beyond the classroom that can enhance your personal growth and
development. Getting involved is not difficult on our campus. Whether
you desire to play sports, participate in an organization, serve as a
student tutor, or to experience other world cultures, we have a place
for you. The University of Arkansas at Monticello has a number of
programs and services that can assist your needs. For example, UAM hosts
over 60 campus organizations that provide a stimulating and interesting
venue for learning life skills, as well as enriching your educational
tenure. In addition, many offices offer on-campus employment for UAM
students.
The Student Handbook is an invaluable campus resource for you.
It provides an explanation of campus services, policies, and
information. Additionally, it describes established standards of conduct
that help us preserve an environment that is conducive to learning and
protecting individual rights. The
UAM Student Handbook is
available on-line. I encourage you to take the time to read about the
opportunities and expectations of your new community.
Finally, stretch yourself, attend class, get involved, and grow!
These will and can be the best years of your life.
Best wishes for a rewarding and meaningful year!
Sincerely,
Clay E. Brown, Ph.D.
Vice Chancellor for University Relations and
Student Affairs
