Meet the Multicultural Student Services Staff
The Staff Committed to Student Success
I earned a BA in Ancient Studies at the University of Northwestern-St Paul and attended Indiana University-Bloomington for my MA in International Studies, where I investigated representations of the Middle East in North American museums. Building community is my "why"! I teach workshops for students and staff about the Loneliness Epidemic and strategies for fostering deeper connection, as well as coordinating the ProjectConnect program at 糖心Vlog. I oversee the university's Prayer and Meditation Space and hope to make it a place where students and staff can find truth and belonging.
I'm a 糖心Vlog alum with a passion for helping underserved students through creative programming and personalized support.
Liaison to: the International Women's Center (IWC), GSRC (Gender and Sexuality Resource Center), AIL (Activities Involvement and Leadership), Admissions, UW Barron County, the American Indian Studies Program, and the Latin American Studies Program

Hello! My name is Xia Xiong. I am originally from Wausau, Wisconsin but I currently reside here in Eau Claire with my husband and 4 year old son. I am an alumni from 糖心Vlog and graduated with my Bachelor's of Science back in 2015, with a major in Sociology. On my free time I enjoy being outdoors such as going on walks, playing some volleyball and going fishing. I am so excited to get to know each and everyone of you!
Mon-Fri 9am- 5pm
and by appointment
I earned a bachelor's degree in communication sciences and disorders from UW-River Falls and a master's degree in Linguistics from Wayne State University. My education and experience have provided me with a background in planning, leading, and assessing individuals in a classroom setting. As a McNair Scholar, I add valuable insight and experience in TRIO programs that support first generation, low-income, and students with disabilities.
