He has received many academic honors, has presented at numerous conferences, is well published, and has been an active member in the community. He received both his Doctor of Education in Higher Education Administration and Master of Arts in Interpersonal & Organizational Communication from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering at the Southern Illinois University in Edwardsville.

Mock and his family are looking forward to relocating to North Carolina.

Gratitude to Interim President Malik
Tarun Malik '90, '11 EdD, has been an excellent steward for the Charlotte Campus as interim president; he returns to his prior position of vice president of the campus. With his years of knowledge and experience, he will ensure a smooth transition of leadership and will be a strong asset to the new president in the coming months.
