Personal

Professor Kilgore-Bowling was born and raised right here in Pike County, Kentucky. As a first generation college student and daughter of a coal miner, she was determined to seek an education in a field that would allow her to give back to the Appalachian community that had given so much to her. This determination led her to spend her college days at Pikeville and to receive a master’s degree in social work from the University of Kentucky. Shortly after completing her MSW, Professor Kilgore-Bowling began her teaching career as an adjunct for the UK College of Social Work. This prompted her to enroll in doctoral classes at UK to further develop her teaching and research skills. She joined the Pikeville College faculty in the fall of 2006 as an interim instructor in the psychology department. During that time, she was instrumental in establishing the social work major at the University of Pikeville and was appointed as the first director of the social work program in 2007. In addition to her teaching and program administrative duties, Professor Kilgore-Bowling enjoys sponsoring and co-sponsoring student groups. She is also very active within the community and is a member of the board of directors of several nonprofit agencies within the service area.

If she isn’t at work at the college or working somewhere in the community, then it is likely that you will find her trying to keep up with her young son, Elathan or at the local Artist Collaborative Theatre with which her family is very active. Professor Kilgore-Bowling also enjoys traveling, reading, all genres of music, watching movies, and spending time with her extended family and friends. However, her absolute favorite thing to do is to spend a quiet evening at home with Elathan and her husband, Terry.

Personal
VanCleave is a native Hoosier with family roots in farming and rural living. A recent transplant to Pikeville—Diane is drawn to the spirituality of the austere mountains and pristine “hollers.” She has maintained an active therapy practice and a strong academic connection to Indiana and plans to continue that tradition in Pikeville. Her interests are in social justice, the advancement of relationships, the commitment to church, and the importance of family. She and her husband Jim plan to maintain the long commute between Evansville and Pikeville. Her son Nathan has been a missionary in China and Korea and is currently studying at Louisville’s Southern Seminary to become a master’s trained missionary. Her son J.T. is an IU graduate and plans on pursuing his Ph.D. in psychology in 2011. The family claims Dollie (named “Dollie” after the cloned sheep), their English sheepdog, as the adopted “baby” of the family.
