Member Spotlight: Reginald Garcon



Name: Dr. Reginald 
Garcon
Title: Registrar and Adjunct Faculty
Institution: Washington Adventist University

What do you do at Washington Adventist University?

I oversee all aspects of the Office of the Registrar. My biggest function as Registrar is being a creative problem solver and ensuring students are progressing and meeting all requirements towards graduation.

What are the values that drive you?

My purpose in life focuses on the 3 E’s (education, engagement, and entertainment) while acknowledging God for the gifts and creativity HE has given me.

If you could do another job for just one day, what would it be?

Just for one day – being in charge of all Broadway theaters.

What do you like about working at Washington Adventist University?

I do love the spiritual aspect of working at my school. It provides built in opportunities for personal spiritual growth as well as being deliberate to take time and pause. I also love my team.

What experience lends to your success as a Registrar?

I have worked in higher education for approximately 25 years in a variety of capacities. My diverse experiences have allowed me to specialize in the following: registration, student advising, retention, student progression, new student orientation, enrollment management, student affairs, international students, students who receive military benefits, accreditation, leadership development, code of conduct investigations, mediation, conflict resolution, student activities, customer service, wellness programming, volunteer initiatives, advising student government associations, residence life and Greek Affairs. When you are a Registrar it helps to have a broad higher education background to work with multiple departments on campus and maintain a student focus on job related tasks and initiatives.
