June Kloubec

Dr. Kloubec was a faculty member at Gustavus Adolphus College in Minnesota for more than 15 years and is also an adjunct faculty member at Seattle University. She was involved as a researcher in several multi-site national studies on cardiovascular disease, obesity, and diabetes. Prior to entering full-time into academia, Dr. Kloubec was the assistant director of the Minneapolis YWCA. She has been a certified personal trainer since 1985 and is certified in yoga, Pilates, and massage therapy. June also has been a collegiate track and cross-country coach.

Dr. Kloubec has a special interest in promoting undergraduate research. Her own interests are centered on exercise and public health.

Dr. Kloubec seeks to challenge students to apply the knowledge they learn in class to the real world and to be able to think about the information on deeper, more meaningful levels. She also tries to motivate students to exceed their own expectations (tempered with a healthy dose of realism).
