Dr. Javier Cevallos was born in Cuenca, Ecuador, and earned his bachelor’s degree in 1976 at the University of Puerto Rico at Mayagüez. He moved to Illinois where he earned his master’s and doctoral degrees in 1978 and 1981, respectively, from the University of Illinois at Urbana.
He began his career in education in 1981 as an assistant professor of Spanish at the University of Maine at Orono, and four years later, moved to the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, where he was promoted to associate professor in 1988 and to full professor in 1992.
In 1994, he was asked to serve as faculty advisor to the provost. In 1996 he was selected as a Fellow by the American Council on Education (ACE). Cevallos spent his fellowship with Douglas Bennet, president of Wesleyan University, in Middletown, Connecticut.
