About the Role
The Company is seeking a visionary leader to serve as its President, with a focus on advancing the institution's mission of academic excellence and social impact. The successful candidate will be a champion of the liberal arts, fostering an inclusive community, and guiding the institution to national distinction. This role is distinguished by the opportunity to lead a premier independent liberal arts college with a clear sense of purpose, a deeply committed community, and a record of stable leadership. The President will be expected to articulate a compelling vision of a modern, future-oriented liberal arts education that prepares graduates for resiliency, complexity, leadership, and lifelong learning. Strategic and financial acumen are equally important, as the role requires a leader who understands higher education as both an academic and organizational enterprise, with a focus on disciplined financial stewardship, data-informed decision-making, and a clear understanding of enrollment dynamics. Candidates for the presidency should hold a terminal degree and have a record of scholarly and professional excellence that is appropriate for leading a dynamic academic community. The ideal candidate will be highly collaborative, with a distinguished record of accomplishment in higher education or a closely related professional field. They must value curiosity, creativity, interdisciplinarity, experiential learning, and intellectual rigor, and be prepared to champion the liberal arts as a foundation for engaged citizenship and leadership in a complex world. The role offers a rare balance of stability and aspiration, and the next President will have the opportunity to focus on student success, innovation, and growth in an environment where community members truly care for one another.
