Welcome to the Hilltop!

It is a great honor to serve as President of West Liberty University. I am deeply humbled by this opportunity and take enormous pride in serving as the leader of West Virginia’s oldest institution of higher education,

West Liberty University is a distinguished, historic, and student-centered campus with outstanding faculty and staff, and the students are amazing. They enjoy a safe, friendly campus with individual attention and strong academic programs.

Our five Colleges and School of Professional Studies offer a quality education that provides excellent return on investment and a successful career path.

Graduate programs include the Master of Arts in Education, the Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies, the Master of Professional Studies, the MA/MS in Biology degrees and our online degrees, which include the Master of Science in Criminology and our MBA. Most recently we announced two more masters, one in Clinical Psychology and the other in Dental Hygiene which are now enrolling.
