Dr. Teri Hall, vice president for Student Affairs, has announced her intention to retire at the end of the fall 2025 semester. The university will conduct a national search for her replacement.

Hall has been at WSU since 2017. She came here from Towson University and in her time at Wichita State has been a staunch advocate for WSU’s 17,000-plus students, growing mental health and wrap-around services, increasing housing options and expanding student leadership opportunities.

“Dr. Hall has been an exceptional servant leader, dedicated to fostering a campus environment where every student feels connected and supported,” said Dr. Monica Lounsbery, senior executive vice president and provost. “Her unwavering advocacy has helped shape a culture of inclusivity and belonging, ensuring that the student experience and well-being remains a top priority. Her contributions to advancing mental health support and care on our campus are both invaluable and deeply appreciated.”

Updates on the search process and a retirement celebration will be communicated in the coming months.

“Serving our students at Wichita State has been the honor of my life, and though I will no longer be here on campus, I will always be a Shocker,” Hall said.
