Todd Haynie became the twenty-second president of Eastern Arizona College
on May 16, 2018.
Nestled in the beautiful Gila Valley and surrounded by mountain ranges, Eastern Arizona College is steeped in tradition and ready to help turn your dreams into reality. As Arizona’s first community college, EAC has shaped student success since 1888, offering more than 90 degrees and certificates, including two bachelor’s degrees, to prepare students for high-demand careers and advanced studies.
Whether you’re beginning your college journey, returning after time away, or taking classes for personal enrichment, we are committed to your success. Our dedicated faculty and staff are here to help you every step of the way — getting you up to speed academically, preparing you for the workforce, or ensuring you’re ready to excel at top universities.
Beyond the classroom, EAC is a vibrant community where you can connect, thrive, and create lifelong memories. With on-campus housing, more than 30 clubs and organizations, dynamic intramurals, and nationally ranked athletic and e-sports teams, there’s something here for everyone.
What truly sets EAC apart is its commitment to affordability. Many of our students graduate debt-free, thanks to financial aid, scholarships, and work-study opportunities that make college accessible to everyone — no matter their financial situation.
I invite you to visit our beautiful campus, meet our faculty, and experience the unique opportunities EAC has to offer. On behalf of Eastern Arizona College, welcome! I look forward to seeing you on campus and being part of your journey to success.
Sincerely,
Todd Haynie
