First Alert Team
The Dean for Students chairs first alert meetings three times a semester. The goal of the first alert team is to intervene when necessary to help students get back on track. At times, there may be behavioral or social concerns that may be affecting a student’s ability to be successful at Pace. One or more of the first alert team members will contact a student when necessary and assist the student in creating an action plan designed to help the student succeed. This includes professional staff from each of the school’s advising offices, which include:
- Advising Center for Exploring Majors
- Athletics
- Counseling Services
- First Year Experience
- Honors program
- Housing
- International Students
- Multicultural Affairs
- Office of the Registrar
- Security and Emergency Management
- Student Accessibility Services
- Student Accounts
- Student Engagement New York City
- Student Engagement Pleasantville
- University Health Care
