University of Wyoming Names First Ombuds

In November 2021, Dilnoza Khasilova became the first Student Ombudsman for the public land-grant research university in Laramie. “The student ombudsman office is slated to officially open in the spring,” Khasilova says. “Currently, our organizational group is collaborating closely with different offices on campus to ensure they know about our services. Our goal is to highlight the value the office brings to our campus and encourage greater use of services the office will be offering to students and staff.” 

Khasilova will retain her position in the UW Office of Global Engagement. She is a two-time alumna of UW, earning a Master’s and PhD. (UWyo News.)
