"My name is Betsy Garrison, and I welcome you to the LSU College of Agriculture. As Associate Dean, I oversee the Office of Student Services in the college.  This involves everything from undergraduate student recruitment, retention, advisement, counseling, graduation, and assistance in job placement, to scholarships, student recognitions and awards, as well as discipline related matters. Our office manages the undergraduate curriculum within the college and provides support for our student clubs and organizations.  We truly believe that we have an excellent and capable student body within the college, and we look forward to meeting and working with you during your tenure at LSU."
