In Fall 2018, President Martha E. Pollack announced that the University would engage in a comprehensive review of student mental health. In the years since that announcement and under the oversight of the Executive Accountability Committee (EAC), the student Mental Health Review began in 2019, and the final report was delivered in spring 2020. Informed by this initiative, Cornell has used a Mental Health Framework since 2020 to guide a campus-wide approach to student health and wellbeing and provides opportunities for every member of the campus community to contribute. This comprehensive public health approach reflects the best practices to guide a campus-wide approach to student health and wellbeing. Because the Mental Health Framework is the bedrock of Cornell’s prevention, intervention, and support efforts on campus, it serves as a frame for the 130 recommendations that were included in the Final Report of the Mental Health Review. Additionally, in October 2022, the administration signed the Okanagan Charter, formally pledging to promote health and wellbeing across all facets of university life.Reporting to the Vice President for Student & Campus Life, the AVP will contribute significantly to SCL’s purpose to inspire student transformation through strategic planning, goal achievement, budget management, service delivery, staff development, and overall success of an evolving and integrated student experience in a highly complex, academically rigorous, and decentralized institution.
