William Crawley, Ed.D.

As dean, Dr. Crawley is charged with sustaining the welfare of the college by supporting academic programming, student support, faculty and staff supervision and development, personnel evaluation, college-based research/grant initiatives, community engagement, accreditation, strategic planning and assessment, alumni relations, and college advancement.

Dr. Crawley has held administrative roles and consulting positions at both public and private universities, and his experience includes conducting program market cost and demand analysis, developing operational efficiencies, and onboarding various budgeting models (centralized, RCM and hybrids) to serve organizational units embedded within larger institutions (e.g., colleges within universities). Such work requires an understanding of issues related to developing budgetary cost-centers, and an appreciation for how such operations will impact the larger organization. As a result of these efforts—in combination with strategic enrollment, collaborative grantsmanship, contracted services, and fundraising the organizations—he has successfully advanced various entrepreneurial and community-oriented initiatives while simultaneously generating significant annual funding for the organizations he has lead.
