New Director of the Office of Leadership Activities 

Associate Dean of Student Affairs Mariel Martin announces the appointment of Carlos Navarro as the new director of the Office of Leadership Activities. 

Carlos Navarro received his B.A. in Psychology from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and his Master of Education in Postsecondary Administration for Student Affairs from the University of Southern California.  

As an undergraduate student, Carlos was involved in a variety of leadership experiences such as clubs, Greek life, honor societies, intramurals. and residential life. This passion for leadership development drove Carlos’ desire to serve as an advisor and administrator in higher education.  

Carlos joins us from Nevada State College (NSC) where he served as a student life coordinator for three years. At NSC, Carlos oversaw and supported the areas of campus recreation, clubs and organizations, student activities, and student government. Carlos also led and created unique programming, such as affinity socials, an e-sports program, podcast series, Lo-Fi Hip-Hop Lounge, outdoor adventure series, and more.  

Carlos is looking forward to fostering holistic student experiences, developing students’ leadership skills, and serving as an ally to students.  

We are so excited to have Carlos join the Campus Life and Engagement team and the Skidmore community on Sept. 8. 

Mariel Martin wants to express her immense gratitude to the wonderful screening group and to the students and colleagues who participated in the search process and provided helpful feedback.
