Parent & Family Resources
At Rutgers-Camden, we understand and emphasize the importance of personal and academic success. We know that you want your student to do well, and the focus of the Dean of Students Office is no different. While we look forward to watching our students grow into well-rounded and responsible adults who are working their way toward a valuable degree, we recognize that not every student’s journey is the same, and that various challenges can arise throughout the academic year to create obstacles that may be difficult to face alone.
Partners in Supporting Your Student
Our staff is dedicated to providing the necessary support to our students by connecting them with the appropriate services and resources on campus, but we also look to you as important partners in this role. Parents, families and support persons are often times our greatest allies when it comes to promoting student achievement, and we hope that just as you can rely on us to help see your student through, we can rely on you to provide them with the consistent guidance and encouragement that they’ll need every step of the way.
This page is dedicated to providing you with critical information to be aware of, which can help guide some of your conversations with your student about their progress, their experience on campus, and to asses any needs for intervention. We hope to get to know you during your student’s time here at Rutgers-Camden. Please check this page periodically for important updates and announcements about upcoming events. Please also feel free to contact us with any relevant feedback and let me know how we’re doing in educating and supporting your student.
Faculty & Staff Resources
The Dean of Students is available to assist faculty and staff with students who are having difficulties or who have reporting something to you. There are reporting forms for you to complete online or you can call (856-225-6050) or email the Dean of Students team to set up a time to discuss the situation with a team member directly.
The Dean of Students can consult with faculty on how to handle a situation, can provide information about policies and procedures that exist to assist students, and can meet with students who are referred by faculty and staff members to provide resources, support and options for students to consider based on their situation.
The Dean of Students team is always available to discuss students having difficulties with faculty and staff members. If an emergency occurs after office hours that cannot wait until the next day, then contact RUPD directly (call 9-1-1 if emergency) and let them know you are calling about a Rutgers-Camden student and the location of the incident or student if known.
Reporting
If you are concerned for the immediate health and safety of the student you are reporting or someone else, please call 911 or the Rutgers Police Department at 856-225-6009.
Find out more about the different forms you can use to report concerns and address specific needs.
