Patrick Francis: Coordinator - Educational Programs

I started with JMU in the Fall of 2013 pursuing a B.S. majoring in Integrated Science and Technology with a duel concentration in Energy and Environment. I then left JMU for a short period of time before returning in the Fall of 2019 when I began a Masters of Education in the College Student Personnel Administration program and recently graduated in May of 2021. During my time as a graduate student, I had the pleasure of serving as the Graduate Assistant for Substance Education as well as Educational Programs. I am excited to continue working with the students of JMU as the Coordinator for Educational Programs and serving the JMU community. JMU is home for many reasons, but to me it is about the people, the community, and the beautiful surrounding areas.

The Coordinator for Educational Programs oversees the Educational programs within the office, coordinates with campus partners in order to promote education about alcohol and other drugs, serves as a Case Administrator, and organizes the office outreach.
