Wesley "Wes" S. Lawson '04 Wes Lawson, Assistant Dean of Students for Residence Life I am a Hampden-Sydney College Alumnus, Class of 2004, and currently I serve as the Assistant Dean of Students For Residence Life and Housing. I have worked The College since 2004; first as a member of the Admissions staff and more recently as the Assistant Dean of Students for Greek Life. Residence Life and Housing allow me tremendous opportunities to work with students as they address conflicts and concerns. One of the biggest areas of responsibility for me is also an area that I am most proud of; the Resident Advisors. The staff of 38 RAs and nearly a half dozen Alternates represents some of the strongest leaders on our campus. These men are actively involved in student life and they are tremendous assets to our staff and to the College. Please do not hesitate to call me or come by the office if you have concerns. I am a strong advocate of working with students to help them overcome their challenges.
