Transportation to airport, train, bus stations
WE'VE MOVED! The Office of the Vice President for Campus Life & Student Services is now at 20 Benevolent Street.
Our mission
Brown University brings to campus independent and creative students who expand their intellectual endeavors beyond the classroom. The division of Campus Life and Student Services establishes and nurtures a vibrant residential environment that enables students to pursue their academic and extra-curricular interests to the fullest.
We teach, advise, counsel, support, coach, guide and mentor. Our work advances students’ abilities to thrive as contributing members of the Brown community; to bring a diversity of experiences, beliefs and identities to bear in their studies and lives; to promote civil discourse; and to develop skills of leadership, cooperation, problem-solving, management of difficult situations, completion of commitments, and group function toward a common goal.
Legal Services
Attorney Len O’Brien has provided legal advice to Brown undergraduate, graduate, and medical students since 2009. He holds office hours at the Sarah Doyle Women’s Center or may be reached by phone. Please check the current schedule as posted on the Sarah Doyle website.
