Dr. Jeremy Isome joined UA-PTC as associate provost Sept. 7 after 18 years of service at Northwest Mississippi Community College.

Dr. Isome’s previous positions included roles in recruitment, adjunct faculty, assistant dean, campus dean, and division dean of early college programs. During his time, he worked with faculty and staff to reorganize orientation and registration. He also created new community engagement opportunities on campus.
