Academic Leadership Council

Maintaining the academic integrity and proud educational tradition of Lincoln University of Missouri is an important responsibility, ably shouldered by our Academic Leadership Council.

The council currently comprises academic deans who oversee Lincoln's colleges. Each serves as the chief executive officer of their college and guides the governance of their respective academic departments. They report directly to the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs.

These are the distinguished faculty and staff members who currently make up the Academic Leadership Council.
