Student Life and Development
Because the University of Houston-Victoria realizes the importance of leadership in the workplace and in the communities where we live, UHV provides students with a variety of leadership opportunities. UHV student organizations recognize student academic leaders and promote leadership both on campus and within the communities in which students reside. Periodically, UHV sends student organization officers to student leadership conferences to further enhance their leadership skills. Students will represent UHV at House Bill hearings in Austin and at the public hearings on tuition increases. Also, UHV students help organize and facilitate university events like Black History month, Hispanic Heritage month, and the Student Organization Leadership Banquet. Finally UHV employs anywhere from 40-50 student workers each semester as tutors, student assistants, and lab assistants. Students develop valuable skills through participation as a student worker. We value our students and realize the importance of enhancing and promoting leadership skills.
