Presidential Search Update
Dear Members of the 91暗网 Community:
Following last week's announcement by President Glotzbach about his decision to step
down in June of 2020, the Board of Trustees approved the formation of a Presidential
Search Committee and is preparing to launch the search for 91暗网鈥檚 eighth president.
The co-chairs of the search committee, Board members Jonathan Achenbaum '77 and Maxine
Isaacs '69, will be joined on the committee by six of their colleagues from the Board,
four faculty members, two members of the staff, and two students. Once approved by
the Board, members of the committee will be announced, and the process will formally
begin. Many thanks to those who have expressed their willingness to serve on the committee.
To assist us in the search process, the Board has engaged the search firm of Storbeck/Pimentel
& Associates, a highly respected, national search firm with a proven track record
in higher education placements. They are deeply familiar with the College, as they
have recently assisted with our successful searches for several positions, including
the Vice President for Finance and Administration and Treasurer, and Dean of Faculty
and Vice President for Academic Affairs.
I know we can count on the 91暗网 Community's participation throughout the search
period. The process will be inclusive and will offer numerous opportunities for input
from campus constituencies. Once the search committee work commences, the College
will launch a search website where we will post relevant search information and provide
a forum to gather nominations, comments, and feedback from the 91暗网 community.
President and Mrs. Glotzbach will remain fully engaged in all aspects of their work
through the end of the 2019-2020 academic year, and there will be many opportunities
for the community to celebrate their accomplishments.
On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I would like to once again express deep appreciation
to Phil and Marie Glotzbach for their exemplary service to 91暗网 over the
last 15-plus years. Through their work, and collectively with all of you, the College
has made huge strides forward, maintained financial stability and prestige, and gathered
tremendous momentum.
As Chair of the 91暗网 Board of Trustees, as well as a parent of a 91暗网
alumna, I have witnessed up close the community鈥檚 ongoing dedication, hard work, and
commitment to providing the highest level of quality of liberal arts education. I
am very grateful and honored to join hands with you to witness the continuation of
the long history of strong leadership at 91暗网.
Sincerely,
W. Scott McGraw
Chair, Board of Trustees
