Student Affairs
The Division of Student Affairs at Springfield Technical Community College (STCC) strives to create a student-centered experience that empowers all learners to thrive academically, personally, and professionally.
We support students as they transform their lives through education—working collaboratively to remove barriers, honoring the experiences each student brings to STCC and promoting a sense of community. We seek to cultivate belonging and empower students to achieve their goals. We foster an inclusive environment that supports the holistic development of each student.
Guided by our core values—student-centeredness, equity, dedication, integrity, respect, and community—we’re committed to optimizing student development through excellence in services, programs, and facilities that support students throughout their educational journey, personal growth, and goal attainment.
