A Message to SJSU Students from the Vice President for Student Affairs:

Ensuring your success is the central mission for the Division of Student Affairs. As Vice President for Student Affairs I guide the Division in that mission with a great deal of enthusiasm and optimism, having dedicated more than 20 years of my professional life at this university. The success of our students is very important to me, and I am confident that all staff in the Division share this commitment. If our staff can assist you in any way, please do not hesitate to contact my office, and we will connect you with the appropriate staff members on campus.

My sole objective is to lead the Division in providing the very best support possible for you as a SJSU student. As you may know, the Division of Student Affairs provides a wide variety of services – career development, health and wellness, campus life, leadership development, cross cultural experiences, disability resources, psychological counseling, student housing, recreation, and co-curricular events. If you are interested in learning more about our departments and opportunities for involvement, please visit our departments page.

We wish you well this fall semester as you pursue your educational goals at San José State University. Please contact my office if we can be of further assistance.

Best wishes,

Dr. Veril L. Phillips
