Academic Support and Success

Bethany Clatt, Academic Advisor
MPH Programs, Public Health Certificates, and ASDOH, MOSDOH, SOMA dual-degree students

My name is Bethany Clatt, and I am the academic advisor for the Public Health program. I have been with A. T. Still University since 2014 and was privileged to be a member of the founding staff of the Missouri School of Dentistry & Oral Health.

Born in Southern Missouri, I was raised in the South Pacific Islands and have now found my home in Northeast Missouri. My free time is mostly spent outdoors on my husband's farm and with my children. I have a Master of Science in Education degree from Purdue University which was earned via online classes. This degree gave me perspective on the unique challenges faced by online adult learners. I am pleased to assist public health students and see them achieve their goals.
