“The top three reasons would be:
The people who work here. Hodges for many is a second family, and I have never seen so many people have such a passion and work so hard together for the common goal of making Hodges the best university not only in SW Florida, but anywhere.
We have a very diverse and inclusive workforce as well – everyone here is from someplace else – and I think because of that employes are much more accepting of people from other cultures or backgrounds.
We are a very innovative organization with how we present classes to students, and have become an institution that is very flexible and can swiftly change as the needs of the university or higher education demand.”
“Hodges University is located on a beautiful campus in sunny Fort Myers, Florida, is tobacco-free, and has earned a Blue Zone Workplace designation, (the first higher education institution to do so in the region) which encourages healthy habits. In addition, all full-time positions include a generous benefits package which may include health benefits, insurance coverage, and tuition waivers.”
“Watching students’ lives change. It just makes everything I do here
meaningful,”
- Teresa Araque, AVP Marketing/Public Information Officer
“Family. I have my “home” family and my “work” family and I couldn’t
do without either one. We have crazy days just like every other
organization, but at the end of the day what we do here is really
special. People come here to change the trajectory of their entire
family’s well being and we get to help,”
- Erica Vogt, Executive Vice President of Administrative Operations
“One of the best things about working at Hodges University is the
close-knit and supportive culture of our staff. They are the most
dedicated and professional group of people I have ever had the
privilege of working with,”
- John D. Meyer, DBA, President
