The Administrative & Professional Collaborative (APC) is the representative voice for the Administrative & Professional employees of FSCJ.

In an effort to build cohesiveness, awareness and collegiality, each month we put a “spotlight” on one of our members. November's Administrative & Professional Collaborative (APC) spotlight shines on Aaron Hanlin.

As Director of the Honors Program in the Department of Curriculum and Instruction, Aaron provides strategic vision and instructional leadership as well as administrative supervision and day-to-day management of the program. He oversees honors curriculum, instruction, outcomes assessment, co-curricular learning, admissions and recruitment. He also works individually with each honors student to support their academic success.

Aaron holds a Bachelor’s in Communication Studies and a Master’s in Higher Education Administration and Student Personnel, both from Kent State University. He is currently on target to complete his Doctorate in Educational Leadership from Manhattanville College in 2023. Aaron has spent 11 years working in undergraduate honors education and has served in leadership roles in the Mid-East Honors Association, Florida Collegiate Honors Council, National Collegiate Honors Council and is currently president of the Southern Regional Honors Council.

Aaron was excited to join the FSCJ community in March 2022, and enthusiastically enjoys working with both the motivated students and dedicated faculty in the Honors Program. 

In his spare time, he enjoys spending time with his husband, three dogs and friends, as well as enjoying the natural outdoor beauty of Florida, kayaking on the rivers, biking or relaxing at the beach.
