At the opening of the Council of Independent College’s Presidents Institute held this year at The Diplomat Hotel and Resort in Hollywood, Florida. For 27 years I’ve attended the PI, the largest gathering of college and university presidents. Pictured with good friends Nancy Gray (top left), former President of Hollins University (now a consultant with Gonser Gerber); Tom Ingram (top right), President-emeritus of the Association of Governing Boards; and (bottom, from left) Anne Die Hasselmo, President-emeritus of Hendrix College (now senior consultant with Academic Search, Inc.), Cheryl Hyatt, Partner, Hyatt-Fennell, and Matthew Shank, President of Marymount University.
