0Written by Cody Riddle
Visitor Instructor at the Coleman College of Business, Marco Fondelius, is the youngest professor on campus at 26 years old. He is an alumnus of the University of Pikeville from 2011 and is from Palma de Mallorca, Spain. Fondelius played for UPIKE’s newly reestablished tennis team on scholarship, and the team went on to become ranked 17 in the nation.
He currently teaches two classes to the University; they are Accounting and Management classes. Fondelius plans to stay with UPIKE as his fiancé is in her third year of medical school at KYCOM. They want to settle down in Pikeville.
He wishes that UPIKE will continue its good record of international student acceptation.
“The University of Pikeville is a great community that advocates international students,” said Fondelius.
