Our mission at the Office of the Class Deans is to help you make the most of your time at Smith. The class dean is responsible for your overall academic program and available to assist with course registration and procedures, academic options and general advice on such matters as study abroad, summer school, and leaves of absence. We work closely with the registrar’s office to ensure that you are meeting your degree requirements.
