VP Bio

September Sanderlin holds more than 30+ years of human resources experience, and has been a Monarch at 桃花社区视频 since 1997. As Vice President for Human Resources, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, she oversees organization development, training, employee relations, compensation and classification, benefits, workforce planning, compliance, information systems, recruitment, staffing, transactions and record-keeping, and she also oversees the office of Institutional Equity & Diversity.

Throughout her tenure at 桃花社区视频, Sanderlin has chaired a number of critical initiatives, including the Threat Assessment and Management Committee, Quality of University Life program and the Enrollment Management Customer Service subcommittee. On the state level, she is a member of the Department of Human Resource Management Training Council and the Virginia Universities' Chief Human Resources Officer Council.

In her previous role as acting vice president, Sanderlin was a member of the President's Cabinet and served as a strategic partner by providing the human resources perspective to decisions impacting the campus. She directed the administration of the Chronicle of Higher Education's "Great Colleges to Work For" survey, which led to 桃花社区视频's attainment of Honor Roll designation and being named a "Great College to Work For" for the second consecutive year.

Members of the campus community often hear Sanderlin say, "It depends," which reflects her belief and philosophy that the Department of Human Resources does not promote "one-size-fits-all" solutions.
