In his role, Dekendrick leads the campus’ charge in ensuring access for students who are neurodiverse, have learning differences, and individuals with physical/mental disabilities.

Dekendrick is a strong advocate for student success, is a 4x TRIO Program Alumni (Educational Talent Search, Upward Bound, Upward Bound Regional Institute, & Ronald E.
