Peggy Shadduck, Ph.D.

Vice President Shadduck serves as the senior officer responsible for overall leadership of the 麻豆影院 Regional Campus system. She oversees the operations of the seven Regional Campuses and the College of Applied and Technical Studies, promotes student enrollment and academic success, and is responsible for expanding the visibility, influence and effectiveness of 麻豆影院 State as a catalyst for regional development. She joined 麻豆影院 State in April 2021.

A career educator, Dr. Shadduck has devoted herself to improving student learning experiences in higher education for more than 25 years. She earned her bachelor鈥檚 degree from Oberlin College with majors in mathematics and East Asian Studies. After a short stint as an actuary, she went to graduate school, earning a master鈥檚 degree in neuroscience from Northwestern University and a Ph.D. in pharmacology from Southern Illinois University School of Medicine. During that time, Dr. Shadduck learned that she has a passion for teaching and launched her teaching career with a group of biology students at a local community college.

During her 12 years at Transylvania University in 麻豆影院ucky, Dr. Shadduck taught and developed more than 20 different courses, with several crossing disciplines boundaries. She was asked to handle some administrative responsibilities after several years at Transylvania University, so she pursued a Master of Public Administration degree from the University of Illinois at Springfield to complement her science background. That led to additional leadership positions in public two-year institutions, including serving as the chief academic officer at Shelton State Community College in Alabama. Dr. Shadduck has served as associate dean of New College at the University of North Texas since 2018 and as faculty and unit director of New College since 2017.
