On-campus student employment at the University of Utah is more than just a job—it’s an opportunity to foster growth, development, and success. With over 750 student employees and 500+ student leaders and volunteers, Student Affairs understands the transformative impact of these experiences on shaping students' futures.
For students, college is about more than academics—it’s about the connections they make, the memories they create, and the experiences that shape their journey on campus. To amplify engagement opportunities and align with President Taylor Randall’s "College Town Magic" vision, Student Affairs has introduced the Campus Events Manager role, held by Pam Logan.
Pam Logan has joined the Student Engagement & Leadership team as the new campus events manager, bringing her energy and expertise to enrich campus life. In this role, Logan will report to Erica Andersen, senior associate dean for Student Engagement & Leadership, and work closely with various Student Affairs and campus partners to plan, coordinate, and oversee a wide array of student-focused events.
Student Affairs is thrilled to announce Virginia DeSpain as the new director of the Student Parent Support Center (SPSC). After serving as interim director, DeSpain now steps into the role permanently, bringing a remarkable wealth of experience and a deep passion for supporting student families.
On October 17, 2024, Student Affairs was a Table sponsor for the Blackout Banquet hosted by HearSee Mobility, a St. George-based non-profit. HearSee is dedicated to improving mobility for the visually impaired with their innovative guide cane that uses Bluetooth and RFID technology.
