Biology Academic Advising

All Biology majors receive Academic Advising, the quality of which is unparalleled. Sr. Grace Mary Flickinger, a national-level winner for Academic Advising, recognized years ago the importance of one-on-one advising and nurturing of every student, not only for their smooth transition to Xavier as freshmen but also for their staying on track for their degree completion and their spiritual growth. Sister served as the Coordinator of Advising for many years, and generations of XU Biology majors have benefited from the highly regarded 'Open Door Policy' and other processes established by her over 30 years ago. These procedures have stood the test of time and continue to play a significant role in the many success stories here in Biology. Dr. Harish Ratnayaka currently serves as the Coordinator of Advising for the Biology Department. For suggestions on how to succeed as a Biology major, see��.
