Staff in the CASL Office of Advising and Student Records stand ready to assist you as you pursue your academic and career goals. Our staff is made up of seven professional academic advisors, including a director and assistant director, and two support personnel. We also have a group of five faculty members who serve as our Board of General Academic Advisors. These five faculty members advise students in our office, pay special attention to our "Undecided" students and new freshmen, and provide that all important faculty perspective.

We work very closely with the Dean’s Office, the five academic departments in CASL, other campus offices providing support services, and the other academic units. We encourage all CASL students to make a habit of meeting with us on a regular basis to review progress toward meeting graduation requirements. We may be contacted by telephone at 313-593-5293, or by e-mail.

The primary role of members of the CASL Board of General Faculty Advisors is to serve as faculty advisors for CASL students who are undecided about their major. However, they also serve as general advisors for any CASL student during the Fall and Winter semesters, and advise new students at summer orientation. To meet with a member of the Board of General Faculty Advisors, see the section titled How to Make an Advising Appointment.
