Student Development and Campus Vibrancy (SDVC)
Vision Statement
“SDVC works side by side to make Stetson a ‘second home’ environment where people go beyond the classroom participating in transformational experiences and initiating ideas that create a vibrant community where all l are welcome.”
Mission Statement
The department of SDVC empowers our students by inclusively:
- Transitioning our students and their families into Stetson’s value-based culture through shared experiences and information – creating authentic connections and new beginnings that will lead to a strong sense of belonging within the Hatter community.
- Connecting our students to communities, experiences, and educational opportunities that will expose and develop their strengths and passions, complement and integrate the academic and out of class discoveries and learning, and allow them to develop diverse programs, educational opportunities.
- Developing a community of engaged minds through diverse programs educational opportunities, and social constructs that build confidence develops their unique voice and helps them envision a positive future.
Commencement Survey
- The commencement survey will be open through the weekend until it is decided to be closed.
- For an update, so far 70 percent of the responses have been from seniors.

Effective Access to Student Education/ Florida Resident Access Grant (EASE/FRAG)
The EASE, formerly known as FRAG, is a grant provides tuition assistance for eligible Florida undergraduate students attending an eligible private, non-profit Florida college or university. This grant has helped a large percentage of students at Stetson. The state has cut funds for Florida students. A cut has been installed from the last state budget to the FRAG/ EASE. There was a banner signed to show support for the funding that the FRAG/ EASE was previously providing. This banner will be brought to Tallahassee.
