play

10/19/21 • 55 min

During this walk, Dr. Willis tells us why it's more than personal.

A Mississippi native, Dr. Willis started his higher education journey as a student-athlete at Pearl River Community College before transferring and earning his Bachelor’s degree from the University of Southern Mississippi. He later went on to earn his Master’s degree from California University of Pennsylvania and PhD from William Carey College

His experiences in education span across several functional areas including but limited to nutrition and wellness, academic affairs, athletics, career counseling, and student advocacy. Each of these roles uniquely prepared Dr. Willis to learn and lead, as he now serves as the Dean of Students and Deputy Title IX Coordinator at Southeastern Louisiana University.

No matter the role, he has continued to prioritize meeting students where they are. If you haven’t seen his content on Twitter, then there is a great chance you have seen him playing sand volleyball with students, roaming around Target with a fresh cut, or talking to Southeastern family and friends on The Dean’s Corner.

He's dope and he does great work. Let's walk!

His leadership as team captain and president of the student-athlete advisory committee (SAAC) prepared him well for his next steps as a MBA candidate and assistant wrestling coach at Mt.

A quantitative methodologist, Wayne uses college impact, sociology, and organizational behavior theories to ground his work. Broadly, his current research agenda explores college esports, social justice in college sport, and higher education governance. He’s dope af and if you are in a position to hire a tenure track faculty role, Wayne Black is your guy!

When he’s not reading or writing, you can find him drinking a local craft beer, building the latest lego set, or cheering on his Los Angeles Chargers.

Walk With TFB - 4.13 Return On Investment // Chelsea T. Smith
play

12/21/21 • 64 min

During this walk, Chelsea tells us how she plans on getting her ROI from her doctoral experience.

An Atlanta suburb native, future Dr. Chelsea completed her undergraduate experience at the University of Georgia where she earned a Bachelor’s in History. She then worked for the College Advising Corps, a Chapel-Hill based non-profit whose mission is to increase the number of historically underrepresented, low-income, first-generation college and high school students who enter and complete higher education. While an advisor, she worked with a high school who had a STEM pathway program which further prepared her to lead and create change at Iowa State University. While in Ames, she created a program series for women in STEM focused on how to support them academically, professionally, and socially. But she was getting started.

Future Dr. Chelsea is currently a doctoral candidate in the Education Leadership, Policy, and Human Development program at North Carolina State University. Her research focuses on Black women in STEM, Black women graduate students, and diversity, equity, and inclusion education and training. She is also a graduate research and teaching assistant, Vice President of Black graduate student association, and academic mentor for college athletes.

She’s a Black woman addicted to airline miles. She’s a podcaster and influencer. And she is one of my most inspiring, motivational peer mentors who asks us the follow questions...

If STEM is the future, why isn’t it serving everyone interested? If it’s not serving all those interested, how will STEM truly expand the future?

Through the Southern Region of Education Board fellowship, she is tackling this issue head on and I am excited we get to learn with her today.
