Provost's Office
Greetings! I am delighted to serve as the Provost and Dean of McKendree University,
an institution with an established reputation for academic excellence and service
to the community.
At McKendree University, we have been growing and changing to ensure that we offer
high quality academic programs that meet the needs of today’s students and prepare
them for success in careers and life. Our academic programs are grounded in a rigorous,
broad-based liberal arts curriculum that develops students’ knowledge, analytical
abilities, research capabilities, creativity, and sense of identity.
In addition to a wide array of undergraduate majors, we offer graduate degree programs
in education, business administration, nursing, and professional counseling, and several
non-degree post-baccalaureate certification and endorsement programs. We offer classes
on the Lebanon campus, at many off-site locations, and online. Most importantly, we
are committed to helping all students develop the knowledge and skills they will need
to serve as tomorrow’s leaders.
I am especially proud to work with a dynamic and talented group of faculty and staff
colleagues who are passionate about their work and dedicated to helping students achieve
success. McKendree faculty and staff engage in ongoing professional development and
scholarly activities to maintain their expertise, contribute new information to their
respective fields, and deliver instruction that is relevant and innovative.
McKendree University has much to offer and many opportunities. If you have questions
or would like more information, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Provost and Dean of the University
