Dear Colleagues,
I am pleased to announce that Dr. Jeffrey St. John has been appointed as Vice Chancellor for Academic and Student Affairs (VCASA) for the University of Maine System.
Jeff has served as Interim VCASA since December 2022, leading strategic academic planning and policy development, student affairs and enrollment initiatives, institutional research, and accreditation. He also led the writing team that prepared the critical five-year strategic plan approved by the System’s Board of Trustees on May 22.
The work that Jeff has undertaken has been tremendously important in guiding and coordinating system-wide initiatives and operations. The VCASA serves as a change leader for UMS, and we would not be in the positive position we are without Jeff’s vision and steadfast work. It is a privilege to offer him this position.
Jeff has worked for the System since January 2021, when he was appointed Associate Vice Chancellor for Accreditation and Strategic Initiatives after serving in a variety of administrative roles at the University of Maine from 2008 through 2020. Prior to that, he was a faculty member in the School of Communication Studies and a Faculty Fellow in Residence in the Honors Tutorial College at Ohio University.
More information is available on the VCASA website.
Regards,
Chancellor Dannel Malloy
