New Dean of Student Development and Special Services Blog

Hello, my name is Darrell Taylor and I am the Dean of Student Development and Special Services (SDSS) at Southern West Virginia Community and Technical College. Since many of our students have limited amounts of free time to reap the benefits of the Student Development and Special Services unit, I decided to create a BLOG to help our busy students stay informed of the activities, events, programs, etc‚ offered at Southern. Additionally, I plan to use this space to share thoughts and ideas about anything remotely related to student development and college life in general.

At this point, I have no definite plans to post to this BLOG every day. My plans are to use this venue to interact with the college community as frequently as possible. I have not established any routines or timetables to post information, so the timing of my posts may become haphazard. As the BLOG evolves, I am confident a more routine structure will emerge.

Occasionally, I will ask other members of the Southern team to post to this site. More frequently, I will ask other members of the SDSS team to post. I will do my best to make it clear who the author of the post is.

I am operating off of the idea‚ that if you build it, they will come. The BLOG is built, so I hope to see you back here soon!
