Research Biography

Dr. Cliff Haynes is a Clinical Assistant Professor of Higher Education Administration/Student Personnel in Higher Education. He serves as the program coordinator for the online Student Personnel in Higher Education program. Dr. Haynes teaches courses related to historical and contemporary issues in higher education, student affairs administration and leadership, and qualitative research methods.

His research interests focus on the student experience outside of the classroom. Three sub-themes define his research: living-learning programs, the graduate student experience, and student affairs at community colleges. Earlier positivist studies have used quantitative methods to examine the benefits for students in out-of-class experiences, and his research helps address this gap in the literature by using qualitative methodology to further explore these experiences.

Dr. Haynes’s work has been published in respected journals such as the Journal of College and University Housing, International Journal of Doctoral Studies, and the Community College Journal of Research and Practice. He has served on editorial/review boards of several journals, including Journal of College and University Student Housing, Journal of College and Character, College Student Affairs Journal, and The Qualitative Report.

Before beginning his role as a faculty member, Dr. Haynes spent eleven years as a student affairs administrator. In addition to his professional roles at the University of Florida and Texas State University – San Marcos, Dr. Haynes served a three-year term as program co-chair for the ACUHO-I Living Learning Programs Conference and was elected to a two-year term as the SAACURH NRHH Regional Advisor.
