Meet Doug!

Douglas Eck
Hall Director (Baker East)

Doug is returning to Baker East for a 2nd year of fun and excitement! Originally from Macomb, IL...Doug came to OSU in 2002 to pursue his Master's degree in Higher Education & Student Affairs (College Student Development). Graduating in 2004, Doug has been at OSU ever since. Currently in his 6th year of being a full-time Hall Director, Doug lives and works in the residence hall with the rest of the fantastically talented staff and amazing students. Doug has found great motivation and satisfaction in helping college students to succeed, learn and to help students realize what it means to be a member of a global society. Doug's overall responsibilities as a Hall Director are to ensure overall building function, student behavior and to support the student experience. Similarly, Doug works with the John Glenn Learning Community, front desk operations and is a fantastic resource for navigating this large university.
 

Doug has many interests that vary off and on, much like a kid in a candy shop, distracted by this and then that...from exercise & outdoors to reality television & cooking, there is not a whole lot that he doesn't like to do. However, his one great love is travel - particularly abroad! Spending the summer of 2007 aboard the M.V. Explorer's Semester At Sea program, Doug had a once-in-a-lifetime experience of traveling to 8 countries in Central and South America aboard a floating campus. Doug is a great resource to everyone in Baker East - be sure to meet him (and introduce yourself over and over until he remembers your name...there's only one of him and 325 of you)!!!
