From The President

Dear Alumni and Friends,

I am writing to you for the last time for these pages as president of Âé¶¹´«Ã½ÔÚÏß. After 23 years as the president of this growing University, it is time to hand the keys to the next generation.

President Susan Cole

As I look back on my time here, I am gratified by how much we, as a campus community, have built together. The past year has been a difficult one, but we have come through the year, and the University stands strong and ready to continue the realization of its important mission.

I am immensely grateful to have had an extraordinary community of colleagues, and I am grateful for the alumni and friends of the University who have so generously assisted us in giving our students the opportunity to prepare for lives of accomplishment. I have deeply valued the confidence this community has demonstrated in my leadership, and I have done my best to be deserving of that confidence.

I am certain that the University has a very bright future ahead of it, and I hope that all of you will continue to derive satisfaction from watching generations of students benefit from the education they receive here. I wish you all good days ahead and fulfillment in your lives.

Farewell,

President Susan A. Cole's signature.Susan A. Cole
