    Elizabeth M. H. Coghill

Dr. Elizabeth M. H. Coghill has served as the inaugural director of the Pirate Academic Success Center at East Carolina University for the past 12 years. An experienced administrator in higher education, her research and practice interests focus on the academic and social success of marginalized student populations: neurodiverse learners, students of color, first-generation students, economically disadvantaged students, and military-affiliated students. She is an early adopter of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) techniques imbedded within a campus learning center. Dr. Coghill is an invited speaker for Academic Impressions on neurodiversity and recent podcast speaker on neurodiverse students and UDL for the ThinkUDL podcast series. Dr. Coghills professional experiences are in learner support services, academic advising, registrar, systems training, career development, and admissions.

Jeffrey G. Coghill has been at Laupus Library, East Carolina University, for 19 years serving first as the collection development librarian and later becoming the outreach librarian and director of Eastern AHEC (Area Health Education Center) library services for 23 counties of eastern North Carolina. He has a BA in English from Methodist University, an MA in English from Western Carolina University, an MLIS from the University of Alabama, and a certificate of advanced study in health science libraries (CAS-HSL) from the University of Pittsburgh. His research interests include collection development, electronic resources, outreach services, technology trends, cool gadgets, aviation, and just about anything music related.
