Reporting to the Associate Director for Fraternity and Sorority Life ( FSL ) in Student Involvement & Engagement, the Coordinator for Healthy Communities & Engagement acts as an advisor, coach, and advocate for the campus fraternity and sorority community. This specialized role focuses on creating out-of-classroom learning experiences that enhance student retention, physical and mental well‑being, and a true sense of belonging across all governing councils.
