You will receive an excellent education from a world-class institution and be challenged to imagine what your future and that of our planet can be. This remarkable institution is the result of a unique combination of history, tradition, curiosity, innovation, excellence, and, above all, faculty, staff, and students of uncommon vision and courage of purpose.

Students who are absent for non-emergency situations are encouraged to directly contact their instructors as soon as possible regarding any absence (examples of nonemergency situations are one-day absences, doctor’s appointments, pre-planned travel, etc.). When possible, students finding it necessary to be absent from class should make arrangements with their instructors prior to being absent. The student is responsible for contacting each faculty member in a timely manner to discuss any late assignments/missed work. There is no College policy related to missed work; this decision belongs to the faculty member. If granted extensions/make-ups/incompletes, it is the responsibility of the student to complete the work in the agreed upon timeframe. If a faculty member requires verification of an absence, students should be prepared to provide documentation to their faculty when they return. The Division of Student Affairs will not provide verification or proof of legitimacy for a non-emergency absence. Students can contact the Division of Student Affairs upon return to campus to review any additional resources that may be needed to assist in the transition back to campus. When a student is absent for a period of time (generally consecutive days) due to hospitalization, emergency, or other critical incident, the Division of Student Affairs can assist in these instances to coordinate notification to instructors. Some emergency or critical incidents may necessitate the Division of Student Affairs coordinating communication on behalf of the student and instructors until a time when the student is able to resume these activities themselves. 13 Technology Overview As there are several relevant computing identities between ESF and Syracuse University, it is very important to remember each of them and your passwords associated with them as well as to protect your identity.

Engagement in activities that take place outside of the classroom can add a great deal to your education and your development as a person. You can make a positive contribution to the community through volunteer service and student leadership. Whether you eventually work for yourself or someone else, your organizational, communication, and management skills combined with your academic achievements will give you a distinct edge. You can gain new skills or fine-tune those you already have through becoming involved in student organizations and activities. Many of the major events and programs at ESF are planned and managed by students. Conducting campus tours, assisting new students during Orientation, planning the annual awards banquets, or hosting families and alumni during the fall barbecue are all ways in which you can become involved. You will have the opportunity to gain new skills, manage finances, expand your knowledge about a particular topic, contribute to and improve campus life and, most importantly, have a good time doing it! The spice and variety of your out-of-class experience depends on your involvement. Define your role … GET INVOLVED ON CAMPUS. EXPLORE, ENGAGE, EXCEL! DIVISION OF STUDENT AFFAIRS ESF Athletics Team sports at ESF began in 1912 with the College’s first student group, the Woodsmen Team (previously named Forestry Club). Today, in addition to the Woodsmen Team, ESF has competitive teams in soccer, men’s basketball, golf, cross country, and track and field. The varsity teams at ESF are members of the USCAA (see www.theuscaa.com ) All of these teams have provided ESF students the chance to compete at the college level. We strongly encourage students to come out to home events and cheer on the Mighty Oaks! www.esfathletics.com In addition, our unique relationship with Syracuse University allows ESF students to participate in a variety of club sports, intramural sports, and off-campus trips throughout the year. recreationservices.syr.edu Career Services The Career Services Office is here to help you accomplish your career goals. From day one, they can help you develop your future plans for jobs, internships and more. Today services are comprised of resume reviews, career counseling appointments, assistance with internship/employment searches, connecting with alumni, how to build your network, and more. 15 As soon as you arrive on campus, you are welcome to meet with a staff member to help determine your career plan. Throughout the year you will see the Career Services staff putting on presentations, and workshops, as well as other annual events including the Graduate and Professional School Fair, Internship and Engagement Expo, and the annual Environmental Career Fair. Every Monday you will receive the ESF Career Services newsletter that highlights featured internships, tips, advice, resources, and events on campus. They can also help you become familiar with the job and internship board site we share with Syracuse University, OrangeLink. The sooner you visit Career Services, the sooner they can help you find your dream internship or job. Begin learning about Career Services on their website or visit us to make an appointment to learn more about how we can help you. www.esf.edu/career Community Service Volunteering to improve the quality of life locally, nationally and globally is an invaluable way to develop your skills, take on greater responsibility, meet new people, and gain perspective into the diverse nature of our world. Currently with over 160 community partnerships and growing, ESF is continuously collaborating with community organizations. Numerous community engagement opportunities are available in the Syracuse community and beyond. ESF Coordinator also facilitates community service opportunities. Each semester ESF hosts a Campus Day of Service, along with several additional opportunities that are made public to students via e-mail. www.esf.edu/students/service Counseling Services ESF is now offering on-campus mental health counseling services to all students. The Counseling Services staff can help with adjusting to college, relationship issues, stress, depression, and other issues you may have. They are located in 105 Bray Hall (next to Student Affairs). Call, email, or drop in to make an appointment. ESF Counseling Services also provides outreach programming to the student body throughout the academic year. These events range from alcohol awareness activities and events to Resiliency and Stress Less Week during midterms to the Clothesline Project and Denim Day. Look for their programming happening in the Gateway Center. www.esf.edu/counseling Collegiate Science and Technology Entry Program (CSTEP) 16 CSTEP is an enrichment program designed to foster the academic success of students from traditionally underrepresented groups and/or who are financially disadvantaged. Students in this program receive coaching, enrichment activities, faculty mentoring, skill development, internship/research opportunities, graduate school/career preparation, and career development. www.esf.edu/students/cstep Student Conduct The College of Environmental Science and Forestry is an institution of higher learning where growth and development are fostered, excellence is pursued, and the highest standards of integrity are expected in all areas of life. The College is committed to providing a safe and secure environment where the individual rights of all persons are respected and the highest quality education is provided to all students. ESF’s Code of Student Conduct outlines the behavior that is expected of all students at the College. The College considers this code to be the minimum expectations and seeks to foster a commitment to the highest standards of ethical behavior by the coherent, consistent, and fair manner in which it enforces its rules and regulations. As a condition of enrollment, all students are required to review the ESF Code of Student Conduct and sign a statement acknowledging that they have read and understand the provisions of the Code. Violations of the ESF Code of Student Conduct will be handled through the College’s student conduct process, which is designed to reflect and support the educational mission of the College and to ensure the fair and equitable treatment of all individuals charged with or victimized by student misconduct. This process is a learning experience which is intended to result in the growth and personal understanding of individual responsibilities by all parties. Student Diversity and Inclusion The Student Diversity and Inclusion Office exists to support underrepresented students and to foster a campus community where cultural diversity is valued and appreciated. The programs and supports aim to prepare all members of the ESF community to effectively interact with others in an increasingly diverse and global society. To learn more about the services and affinity groups students can engage with, visit their website. www.esf.edu/students/di Additionally, ESF students can also connect with the Syracuse University Office of Multicultural Affairs and the LGBT Resource Center to get the latest information about upcoming events at SU that ESF students can access. lgbt.syr.edu multicultural.syr.edu Student Involvement and Leadership Your ESF and Syracuse University student activity fees support a variety of student organizations and programs. At ESF, the 17 undergraduate activity fee is administered by the Undergraduate Student Association (USA). Clubs that receive student activity fee monies must be open to all students. At SU, the Student Association is the undergraduate representative body. During your first year at ESF, you should make it a priority to attend at least one USA meeting, an Insomniacs event, join at least one club, tie-dye one of your ESF shirts, participate in an Eco-Rep program, and check out Earth Week. There is so much more to do than that at ESF but it will give you a nice snapshot of the traditional events and programs we have at ESF. Do not forget to check out all the events that are going on across the street at SU, too! ESF offers clubs ranging from Green Campus Initiative, which focuses on making the campus and community a greener and more sustainable campus, to Primitive Pursuits, which teaches ancient living skills. The full list of the 32 student organizations ESF has to offer is listed in the Student Planner you received at Orientation check-in. You can also view all of the organizations and find up-to-date meeting times online. www.esf.edu/students/involvement/clubs.htm. Student Support Sometimes through the course of a student's experience, issues arise, and it would benefit the student to talk about those concerns with a staff member and explore options and resources that may be of assistance. The Division of Student Affairs assists students and their families in managing crises and other barriers that impact success such as physical health, emotional well-being, and social adjustment. We are also a point of contact if you are unsure where to direct your concern or to seek assistance from. www.esf.edu/students/support/ HEALTH CARE ESF has changed the way students receive health and counseling services, and ESF students no longer have access to these services through Syracuse University. ESF will provide mental health counseling on campus in a newly established Counseling Services Office. Counseling Services is located in 105 Bray Hall, next to the Division of Student Affairs offices. ESF will not provide health services on campus. There are several medical providers available to students within an easy walk of the Syracuse campus. The College has developed an agreement with Crouse Medical Practice to provide health care and pharmacy services to ESF students who opt to use their services. All ESF students are required to have health insurance coverage beginning this fall. This is a requirement at most colleges and universities nationally (including Syracuse University) and is meant to ensure that college students are able to access off-campus health care services when needed, and that our students have access to an affordable, cost-effective private insurance plan with benefits that have been carefully reviewed and approved by the College. www.esf.edu/counseling www.esf.edu/health OTHER SUPPORT RESOURCES AT ESF Where Can I Go? 18 Tell Me More!

As one of the country’s most sustainable residence halls, it provides its residents with unique amenities such as bike racks, a community kitchen, and multiple modern lounges & study spaces. Centennial Hall has multiple on-site professional staff members (as well as student staff support) who work to establish an environment conducive to safety, community, and personal growth for all residents. These staff members regularly host social and educational programs and events to integrate students into the ESF community. Conveniently located next to ESF’s campus and much of SU’s (just a short walk from the Carrier Dome and Marshall St.), there are many opportunities for adventure both in and out of Centennial’s walls. Be sure to visit them soon! www.centennialhallesf.com 19 OUTAND ABOUT OUT AND ABOUT _______________ At ESF we believe our community extends beyond the boundaries of our campus. Many ESF students live in the University neighborhood and it is our hope that they are known to be respectful and involved community members. 20 Living in a community such as ours is a great privilege; get to know your neighbors, know the rules, and make a difference. At Syracuse University, the Office of Off-Campus and Commuter Services orients students to the broader community, prepares them for successful transitions, and facilitates continued student success. The office provides information, resources, education, and programs that help students living off campus or commuting from home with support. occs.syr.edu Below are some of the great resources to get you connected to the City of Syracuse.
