Bartlow named interim associate vice president 

Jon Bartlow, who for nearly a decade has served as the director of the Alumni and Constituent Relations Office and executive director of the Pittsburg State University Alumni Association, has been appointed as the interim associate vice president and dean of students — a new position created as part of an organizational restructuring. 

Starting June 11, Bartlow will oversee nearly all aspects of campus life, and will be part of the team reporting to the new vice president for Student Affairs and Enrollment Management when that position is filled this summer. 

His oversight will include Campus Activities, Greek Life, Student Government, Student Wellness Programming and Counseling, Campus Food Services, Barnes and Noble Gorilla Bookstore, University Housing, the Bicknell Family Center for the Arts, and the Overman Student Center. 

Bartlow is a two-time graduate of Pitt State, having earned a bachelor’s degree in Communication in 1999 and a master’s degree in Communication in 2003. He earned a Ph.D. in higher education administration from Saint Louis University in 2019. 

A search for leadership of the Alumni and Constituent Relations program soon will be underway.
