Subject: Proof - EIU welcomes Sean Reeder as University’s VP of Business Affairs
Dear Colleagues,
I’d like to take a moment to introduce and welcome Sean Reeder to our outstanding EIU leadership team. Sean joins us as the university’s Vice President of Business Affairs, and will oversee the everyday operations of the university’s Business Office, including preparation and internal control and distribution of annual state appropriation. The Business Affairs division also provides administrative oversight to several areas across EIU, including environmental health and safety, facilities planning and management, human resources, institutional planning and research, and more.
Sean brings extensive experience to EIU’s VPBA position, having spent a considerable portion of his career in the higher education arena in the Midwest--specifically at the University of Illinois and Michigan State University. He has performed in several sequential roles, from leading capital programs to his last role as assistant vice president for capital programs & utility services, where he provided oversight and management in key areas across the University of Illinois system.
Sean earned a bachelor’s degree in General Engineering and an MBA from the University of Illinois in 1998 and 2002, respectively. He is on course to earn a Ph.D. in Higher Education Policy, Organization and Leadership in May 2021.
I appreciate the work of all those involved in the hiring process, and in enthusiastically welcoming Sean to our EIU Family.
Jay Gatrell, Vice President for Academic Affairs
