About Henry Broaddus

Title: Associate Provost for Enrollment and Dean of Admission

Hometown: Richmond area (grew up in Hanover, Powhatan and Chesterfield)

College: Dartmouth, degree in English literature and creative writing

Proxy experience as a W&M alumnus: One of the two best men in my wedding obtained his law and business degrees here. The other received his undergraduate degree in chemistry and his Ph.D. in applied science from William & Mary. 

Greatest professional privilege: Personally signing offers of admission

Two unexpected things I would accomplish if I had unlimited power and influence: BCS football playoffs that create the same excitement as our FCS (formerly I-AA) national playoffs, and FDA-enforced standards for what can be listed on a menu as a "club sandwich"

Side arm of choice: MacBook Pro, but I also always carry two Flair pens—one black and one red.

Responsibilities: I oversee the admission and financial aid offices, and I bear ultimate responsibility for the enrollment division's efforts, outcomes and personnel. Fortunately, the last of these includes people who make me look good when it comes to the first two.
