I am pleased to share that Dr. Katrina D’Aquin, Associate Professor of Psychology and Interim Vice President for Academic Affairs, is one of an elite group of 25 participants selected for the 2014-2015 Council of Independent College’s Senior Leadership Academy.
This year-long program, described as “a self-directed, self-initiated year-long internship,” consists of seminars, readings, mentorship, career coaching and the development of a professional experience plan to prepare participants to attain senior leadership positions at independent colleges. As her program mentor, I will work with Katrina to identify projects which will give her valuable experience in college administration. Katrina will also visit other campuses and, with her cohort, explore critical issues in higher education.
Katrina joined the Bethany College faculty in 2006, became Director of First Year Studies in 2007, and Assistant Vice President for Academic Affairs in 2012. She currently is serving as Interim Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean of Faculty.
I know you join me in congratulating Katrina on her acceptance into this program.
