Tom Justice, a 1989 University of the Ozarks graduate, has joined his alma mater as an admission counselor. His first day was May 8, 2023.

His recruiting territories will include Northwest Arkansas, Mexico, Central America and South America.

Justice, who played baseball while earning a degree in business administration as a student at Ozarks, has spent most of the past 30 years living in Panama.

He has more than 20 years of experience as a manager and operations director in the restaurant industry and more than 13 years of experience in athletics as a coach, educator, counselor and director. He was the co-founder of JSC Youth Sports Academy in Panama and has served as a baseball coach and instructor for more than 15 years.

“After living abroad in Panama for the past 29 years, I am grateful for the opportunity that the University has offered and to return to the community where life changing moments started for me after graduating from Ozarks in 1989,” Justice said. “After career’s in the corporate world, professional athletics and student development, I feel that I am ready to start another career as an admissions counselor at Ozarks working with students and student-athletes.”

Justice said he and his wife, Tita, “look forward to sharing our faith and cultural experiences learned from living in Panama.”

He is also looking forward to being closer to his children, Michael Justice ’17 and Nicole England ’18, both U of O graduates.

Outside of work, Justice enjoys biking, golfing and “most of all spending time daily with my grandson Mathias, who is two years old.”
