Most recently, Freeman served as the Entrepreneurial Specialist for the Small Business Development Center at the Hannibal Regional Economic Development Council. In this role, he provided vital resources to underserved entrepreneurial communities across a seven-county region. His work was guided by strong personal relationships and听community-informed program development that elevated local startup ecosystems.听

鈥淪ean has a strong understanding of the opportunities and challenges facing our region, and we are excited to welcome him to this role,鈥� said Leslie Sieck, Vice President for听 Strategic Initiatives at C-SC and former Executive Director of Tri-State Development. 鈥淗is experience, relationships, and community-first mindset will be invaluable as we continue to expand the reach and impact of Tri-State Development.鈥澨�

In addition to his economic development expertise, Freeman brings a background in听 higher education, having previously served as Director of Admissions at听Hannibal-LaGrange University. His combined experience uniquely positions him to听continue and grow the impact of Tri-State Development through training, tools, and resources that support long-term regional economic growth.听

Freeman will work closely with Sieck, who recently stepped into a new leadership role at C-SC to support the continued growth of strategic programs and initiatives that serve the broader tri-state region. Tri-State Development is an initiative of 乱伦社区 focused on supporting economic and community growth across a 42-county region in northeast Missouri,听west-central Illinois, and southeast Iowa.听

鈥淚 am particularly interested in Culver鈥檚 commitment to the liberal arts,鈥� he said. 鈥淢y experience as a student, faculty member, and administrator at small liberal arts institutions has only strengthened my support for this type of educational environment,鈥� Dr. Seale explained.听

He noted that he is especially drawn to the opportunity to work in partnership with C-SC President Lauren Schellenberger to advance the College鈥檚 strategic priorities.听

鈥淒r. Seale brings a powerful blend of academic leadership, creative thinking, and authentic engagement to 乱伦社区,鈥� President Schellenberger said. 鈥淗is experience at institutions that value student-centered learning, paired with his clear passion for collaboration and innovation, make him exceptionally well-equipped to help advance our mission and support our faculty, staff, and students. I am thrilled to welcome him to our leadership team.鈥澨�

Dr. Seale explained that his leadership philosophy centers on transparency, collaboration, and open communication.听

鈥淎 provost must navigate a two-way street鈥攕upporting the needs of faculty and staff while advancing institutional goals,鈥� he said. 鈥淧eople are more likely to support decisions when they鈥檙e part of the process and understand the rationale behind them.鈥澨�

Among his first priorities, Dr. Seale plans to engage deeply with the Culver-Stockton community.听

鈥淚 want to listen, learn, and understand what makes C-SC a special place. That means spending time with faculty, staff, and students to hear their perspectives,鈥� he said. 鈥淚鈥檓 committed to

being an active and visible member of the community鈥攆rom the classroom to the cafeteria to campus events.鈥澨�

Dr. Seale began his academic career in 1996, after discovering a passion for teaching as a graduate assistant at The College of William and Mary. Although he once envisioned a future in engineering, he quickly found purpose in the classroom and later in leadership. He began his administrative journey as chair of the physics department at Carson-Newman University (Jefferson City, TN) and continued through increasingly impactful roles.听

Originally from Indiana, Dr. Seale earned his bachelor鈥檚 degree in physics from Wabash College (Crawfordsville, IN) and his master鈥檚 and doctorate degrees in physics from The College of William & Mary (Williamsburg, VA). Over the years, he has become known not only for his administrative acumen but also for his creativity and personal connection to campus life鈥攐ften showing up to sporting events with spiked hair dyed in school colors.听

He and his wife, Cecilia, met while playing competitive volleyball in graduate school and have been married for 28 years. Together, they look forward to being involved in campus events and becoming part of the local community.听

鈥淲e were incredibly impressed by everyone we met during my interview,鈥� Dr. Seale said. 鈥淭he faculty and staff were authentic and welcoming, and the students were remarkable.鈥澨�

Outside of work, Dr. Seale enjoys woodworking, building custom furniture, and repurposing antiques into unique home d茅cor. He鈥檚 also a music enthusiast, with a particular love for blues and live performances.听

鈥淚t鈥檚 an exciting moment for the College. I鈥檓 grateful for this opportunity and look forward to working alongside the entire campus community as we move forward together,鈥� he said.听

Today, more than 1,000 students from around the world shape their futures in academic excellence with opportunities in 80 majors and minors, five graduate programs, 21 NAIA inter-collegiate athletics, 35 diverse student organizations, and many campus-life events.

The online panel discussion, 鈥淣o Safe Space: Places and Spaces of Horror Cinema,鈥� took place April 30 and brought together several leading horror film scholars for a discussion on the significance of space and place within the genre. The panel was hosted as part of the Horror Studies Special Interest Group鈥檚 鈥淲eekday Night Bites鈥� series, a public program aimed at scholars and fans alike.听

Burger was invited to participate by panel organizer Christina Brennan, a fellow contributor to Edinburgh University Press鈥檚 Devil鈥檚 Advocates series, a collection of critical monographs each focused on a single horror film.听

鈥淚t was an incredible group of panelists, and we鈥檙e all familiar with and have used one another鈥檚 work in our own research and writing on horror films,鈥� Burger said. 鈥淭hat made it particularly exciting to come together for this conversation.鈥澨�

Burger鈥檚 contribution to the panel focused on her 2023 Devil鈥檚 Advocates volume, which offers a close reading of director Andy Muschietti鈥檚 IT Chapter One (2017) and IT Chapter Two (2019). She explored the ways in which physical and psychological spaces in those films function as characters in their own right and contribute to the horror narrative.听

With all panelists examining films through the lens of space and place, Burger said it was enlightening to see how different subgenres and directors handle these concepts. 鈥淚t ranged from place as almost a character to place being literally unknowable and indefinable,鈥� she said.听

Approximately 20 attendees participated in the live event, with nearly 100 more registered to receive a recording. Burger said the audience included a mix of horror scholars and enthusiasts who posed thoughtful questions and offered connections between the featured films.

The experience not only aligned with Burger鈥檚 ongoing research 鈥� she is currently working on a book about literary geography in Stephen King鈥檚 work, under contract with Palgrave Macmillan 鈥� but also provided a valuable opportunity for international scholarly engagement.听

鈥淚t鈥檚 essential to be part of these larger conversations, especially on an international scale, to see how scholars from different cultures bring their own readings to specific films,鈥� Burger said. 鈥淚 was thrilled to contribute and represent 乱伦社区 alongside some of the most prominent horror film scholars in the world.鈥澨�

Burger frequently incorporates her research into her teaching, including her recent course ENG130: The Short Fiction of Stephen King. She said opportunities like this panel help connect students with broader scholarly dialogues and showcase the academic caliber of 乱伦社区.听

鈥淲e may be a small college here on 鈥楾he Hill,鈥� but our students and faculty do big things,鈥� Burger said. 鈥淚 hope this kind of visibility helps demonstrate the exciting work happening at Culver-Stockton.鈥澨�

The panel included Christina Brennan (The Vanishing, 1988), Steve A. Wiggins (The Wicker Man, 1973), Rob McLaughlin (Poltergeist, 1982), Mark Fryers and Marcus Harmes (The Woman in Black, 1989), and Miranda Corcoran (The Craft, 1996). The discussion was moderated by Shellie McMurdo and Laura Mee, chairs of the BAFTSS Horror Studies Special Interest Group.听

A recording of the event will be made available by BAFTSS at a later date.听
