Academic Leadership Council

Lincoln University Missouri campus
Academic Affairs and Office of the Provost

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 is currently made up of academic deans that 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 members who currently make up the Academic Leadership Council.
