The list takes into account factors such as workplace diversity, staffing practices and work environment, using a web-based survey to examine categories such as family friendliness, salary/benefits and professional development opportunities.

The Division of Student Affairs is committed to ensuring that its 1,000-plus staff members have a supportive, developmental work environment that actualizes departmental missions, attends to individual and collective needs, and facilitates employee growth and development.
