Hi! I am Jeter Smith Linden Hall Resident Director. I am from Cleveland, Ohio by way of Rock Island Illinois where I spent the past 5 years as a Residence Director. I began to love student affairs when I gained 2 years of leadership experience as a Resident Assistant while earning my Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications and a minor in Business Management at Hiram College.

After taking a year off and working as a Specialist of Debt Recovery, I returned to housing as a Residence Director at Augustana College. Meanwhile, I earned my Master of Science in Education in counseling degree from Western Illinois University.

As a full-time graduate student and full-time Hall Director, I juggled many responsibilities: Treasurer of the WIU Counseling Association, member of Chi Sigma Iota International Honor Society as well as many other professional leadership positions within organizations.

In five years at Augustana, I have learned a great deal about the division of Student Affairs and hope to continue gaining responsibility in the field while contributing as much as I can.

I've had an opportunity to try out for the Cincinnati Reds during my high school baseball career. In addition, I played football, wrestled, and ran track and received several offers from various colleges but, decided to take an academic scholarship instead.

My office is located on the ground level of Linden Residence Hall across from the elevators. Feel free to stop by and say hi, I'd love to chat with you!
