For over a decade, I have
served as the executive editor of a popular, internationally distributed
higher education thought-leadership series written by college
presidents for college presidents. Originally titled "Presidential
Perspectives," the series transitioned last year to its new name, “President to President.” The theme for 2017-18 is “How Disruptive Innovation is Shaping the Next-Gen Campus and Enabling Student Success.”
Please follow this link to the most recent chapter: president2president.com
Chapters
are authored by notable presidents whose institutions are in the
forefront of innovative practices in these areas. One chapter is
released each month, distributed electronically, and posted on the
President to President website. At the end of the series, the foreword
and chapters will be bound into a book and distributed to college and
university presidents nationwide.
Although Sodexo sponsors this
series and is a contract service of Virginia Wesleyan University, I do
not receive compensation to serve as executive editor. Rather, Sodexo
makes a generous contribution to the student scholarship fund of
Virginia Wesleyan, in lieu of payment.
Special thanks to my
co-executive editor and long-time consulting and publishing colleague,
Marylouise Fennell, who also serves as senior counsel to the Council of
Independent Colleges.
I hope you enjoy the series.
