The staff of The Dr. Mary Jo Wynn Academic Achievement Center operate in several capacities with the student-athletes. Each full-time staff member and graduate assistant serves as the primary supervisor for one or more teams' academics. The staff advises student-athletes regarding general education courses and works with advisors from other majors as the student-athletes declare their major. The staff members conduct weekly one-on-one meetings with student-athletes to monitor academic progress. These meetings are vital to the proactive approach used by The Achievement Center. It is much easier to identify a problem and take steps to correct it before it becomes a crisis situation.
