Dr. Keiwana Perryman has been an invaluable part of the CSD team for the past five years, serving as Associate Director. In this role, Dr. P passionately supported and advocated for students representing the African Diaspora.

We are thrilled to announce that Dr. P will now expand her impact as Director, championing and advocating for all students holding underrepresented and marginalized identities.

Please join us in congratulating Dr. P on this well-deserved achievement!

Our family is growing! Dr. Keiwana Perryman joined the CSD team this Spring as our newest Associate Director for Student Diversity and Development.

Having served in leadership development roles at Penn State, ODU, and most recently here at Towson, Dr. P will develop programs and initiatives to support our African, African American & Diaspora communities.

Make sure to stop by the CSD, UU 313 to welcome Dr. P in person!
