Dean of Students Office

We welcome you all to the Dean of Students Office website. Our most important job is to act as a resource and advocate for the students of Hamline University.   The Dean of Students Office provides a warm and welcoming environment where undergraduate students and their parents can get questions answered and receive assistance in resolving problems and complaints to assist students in being successful.

The Dean of Students Office is a part of Student Affairs reporting to the Provost's Office. It oversees the various departments in the Student Affairs Division.

The Dean of Students Office is one of the key resources available to both students and parents. Our office consists of the Dean of Students, Alan Sickbert and the Assistant Dean of Students, Patti Klein. We deal with primarily non-academic matters and problems. These include housing, discipline, bookstore, dining services, policies, transfer students, counseling and health issues, disability services, career services, and parents issues. We would be happy to discuss concerns you may have regarding these issues. Remember, we're here to help.
