To the Campus Community:

I am pleased to announce the appointment of Kevin Jordan, EdD to the position of Vice President for Student Affairs. Kevin also will continue to serve as Chief Diversity Officer and a member of the Cabinet. Kevin has held the position of VP for Student Affairs on an interim basis for the past year and during that time has made significant contributions to improvements in student life, student services, and residence life, as well as continuing initiatives in diversity and inclusion.

Kevin serves on the Board of Directors of two Long Island not-for-profit organizations: Project Safety Net-NY, Inc. and Bridge to Promise, Inc. He is a member of the Urban League's State of Black Long Island Council, and he is a founding member of the on-line "Trusted Voices of Long Island" dialogue, whose mission is to bring community leaders and visionaries around a common table to address issues of diversity, inclusion, and equity.

Kevin holds an EdD from Dowling College in Education Administration, Leadership and Technology, an MDiv from Union Theological Seminary, and an AB from Princeton University with a focus on Psychology.

Please join me in congratulating him.

John Nader
President
