| Introduction | Hi, I'm Stephanie Staffey, Director of Academic Advising at Post University. I joined Post as an adjunct instructor in 2005 and helped develop and teach courses in world civilizations, geography, U.S. history, and learning across the lifespan. I enjoyed teaching in the online program so much that when I moved back to Connecticut in 2008 I applied to be an academic advisor. Since transitioning into advising, I've worked with students in many programs, especially MBA students. I also manage our College Success Seminars for incoming students. I've seen our online programs expand from fewer than 1,000 students a few years ago, to more than 7,000 students today. I'm amazed by the growth! I know it's a result of the dedication that Post University employees have for their students. I love hearing the success stories from students on a daily basis. Before joining Post, I was Assistant Director of Student Services at the Bard Graduate Center. I also worked in academic administration at Providence College, my alma mater, where I earned my bachelor's and master's degree in history. You can read my blog posts here. |
