Matthew Little has been named Assistant Vice President of Enrollment Management and Director of Admissions at Gordon State College.

Little comes to Gordon from the University of North Alabama in Florence where he served as Interim Director, University Success Center and as the First-Year Experience Director.

"My goals for Gordon State College are to help more students realize that Gordon State College is a great fit for them and to make sure that their experience here is a positive one," he said.

He enjoys spending time with his wife, Amy, an English instructor and two daughters, Maggie 8, and Penny, 2.

"Family time is important," he said. "I've been known to occasionally dress up and participate in a tea party and I can do all the voices in my daughters' favorite book, "The Monster at the End of This Book."

Little earned his Bachelor of Science in Integrative Studies: K-8 Focus at The University of Memphis; a Master's Degree in Administration and Supervision: Higher Education at Middle Tennessee State University and is working on a Doctor of Education in Higher Education/Higher Education Administration at the University of Alabama. He hopes to complete his dissertation in December.
