David Sauerwein is a Asst. Dean of Students at UVA and Liaison to the Posse Foundation at University of Virginia. Colleagues describe them as "David is very professional and focused on the work of students in the residence halls and outside the classroom. David's work to match the needs of the school with the needs of students reflects an understanding and commitment to both parties. " and "I highly recommend Dave Sauerwein to anyone looking to hire or collaborate with an educator with integrity, passion, and compassion. I had the honor of supervising Dave very early in both our professional careers, at the University of New Hampshire, and am pleased that we've stayed both personally and professionally connected in the years since. Dave is foremost a thinker--he not only makes students think, but he challenges his supervisees, colleagues, and superiors to really listen, understand, and think about their decisions and their actions. He works hard to earn the trust of his students and peers. Dave holds himself and his colleagues accountable to high standards with remarkable compassion, displaying empathy while challenging others to be true to their values and themselves. I regret that we could not work together longer, but will proudly call Dave a colleague forever."
