Athletic Academic Support Program
Nearly 15% of Siena students partic- ipate on one or more of Siena’s varsity intercollegiate athletic teams. As members of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference, Siena student athletes reap the benefits of both worlds – the opportunity to engage in a challenging and stimulating academic environment, along with the chance to develop their athletic potential as members of competitive NCAA Division I teams. The support services provided to student athletes are designed to offer assistance and resources, in addition to encourage- ment and guidance as they strive to maintain balance and achieve excel- lence in their academic and athletic careers. Services include monitoring academic and degree progress, supervision of study hall, coordina- tion of enrichment and educational
programming, as well as interaction with academic advisors and faculty within the various Liberal Arts, Science and Business colleges.
Saints Supporting Saints – AcademicTutoring Service
Student athletes who excel at certain subjects are utilized as tutors, helping fellow Saints achieve their academic goals. The program is funded by the athletic department.
Athletic Study Center
In the fall of 2004, the Siena athletic department introduced a new study center located on the second floor of the athletic building, the Marcelle Athletic Complex. Incoming freshmen and at-risk student athletes are required to attend study hall through-
out the academic year as described in the Siena Student Athlete Handbook.
On-Campus Resources
The state-of-the-art J. Spencer & Patricia Standish Library opened in 1999 and exceeds all the resources expected from an institution of higher education. Students are also encouraged to take advantage of The Writing Center at Siena College, which exists to provide free, one-on- one tutoring to all members of the Siena College Community, working with writers from all levels of experi- ence, ability, and expertise. The Siena Career Center is also an excel- lent resource dedicated to teaching the career development process to students through innovative and quality career services.
