 Dr. Sherryl D. Weems, '76 |
Dr. Sherryl D. Weems, Class of 1976, is returning to Fredonia as a part of EDP’s Alumni Speaker Series. Dr. Weems was recently named the Provost at Victory University in Memphis, Tenn., after serving SUNY Buffalo as Associate Vice-Provost for Continuing and Professional Studies and Executive Director of the Educational Opportunity Center.
She will give her address, “Excellence without Excuses”, at 3:30 p.m. in 101 Jewett Hall, Wednesday, Nov. 2.
Weems received her doctorate in education and administration from SUNY Buffalo. She also holds master's degrees from SUNY Buffalo and a master's degree in theology from Northeastern Seminary in Rochester, N.Y. In addition, Weems has completed the Harvard Graduate School of Education Institute for Higher Education Certification Program in Management Development.
She was recognized as EDP’s first Distinguished Alumni in 1981 and has been back on campus for the 2008 and 2011 EDP alumni and friends reunions.
The EDP Alumni Speaker Series provides a platform for EDP graduates to motivate and inspire students from a program and campus that have had a significant impact on shaping their lives. In addition to providing a means for current EDP students and other members of our campus community to interact with our EDP Alumni, the event serves the purpose of highlighting the important work and success stories of our EDP alumni in varying fields.
