Soufleris brings more than 30 years of leadership experience in student affairs and earned a doctorate in Sociology from the University at Buffalo and bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Binghamton University. She has conducted research on how homeschooled students make the transition to a residential college experience, and she has taught graduate and undergraduate courses in Sociology, Women and Gender Studies, American Culture and Criminal Justice, including seminars on sexual violence and on professional leadership.
Soufleris views her role as helping students succeed academically and grow personally. Over the course of her career, she has provided leadership for a wide range of student support services, from housing, wellness, campus safety, recreation and student engagement, as well as recruitment and retention. Among her many accomplishments, Soufleris points to the focus she has given to student well-being, including establishing teams that are trained to respond to bias-related incidents and to assist students experiencing mental health challenges or other difficulties impeding their success. She is also a certified suicide prevention trainer.
