In four years of managing the Northern Arizona University (NAU) Student Service Center--a one stop shop--from concept to fruition, the author has collected some tips and tricks and a toolbox of key components for success. The NAU Service Center journey started in 2012, when university leadership came together for a two-year concept review that included visiting other one stops, building stakeholder consensus, and securing funding to start a new campus department. When the proposal was accepted, the planning and design continued. The grand opening of the NAU Student Service Center was celebrated in 2016. Now in its fifth year of operation, the center is celebrating the first full undergraduate student lifecycle for the 2016-2017 cohort it has served from orientation through graduation. This article shares tales from this journey and a look at some of the tools that helped build a holistic path to student success.
