Education: University/College, FT Employee
St. Mary?s College of California (Moraga, CA)

Saint Mary?s College of California seeks a dynamic leader to serve as its 29th President. Celebrating 150 years of education in the tradition of the De La Salle Christian Brothers, Saint Mary?s College of California is a Catholic, liberal arts, residential college serving approximately 4000 students, promoting rigorous critical thinking, shared inquiry, and social justice. Located on a beautiful 420 acre campus in the Moraga Hills east of San Francisco, Saint Mary?s is known for its liberal arts undergraduate education, including its Collegiate Seminar and January Term programs; high quality graduate and professional programs, including business, education, leadership and fine arts; and award-winning, internationally recognized faculty and students. Saint Mary?s students rate their college experience as academically challenging and engaging, with a supportive learning community that provides a transformative education to a vibrant and diverse student body. Consistent with the College?s Catholic mission, approximately a third of Saint Mary?s undergraduate students are Pell-eligible, and half are ethnic minorities. Student life is marked by the Lasallian tradition of service; Saint Mary?s is a member of the President?s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll with Distinction, with students providing nearly 40,000 hours of service to communities in the U.S. and abroad. Saint Mary?s Division I sports programs are nationally known; in 2012, Saint Mary?s fielded three West Coast Conference (WCC) championship teams and sent four teams to NCAA championship play. Saint Mary?s is also one of the 40 distinguished institutions included in the most recent edition of Colleges That Change Lives and is the first Catholic, California or NCAA Division I institution so honored.

Under its new President, Saint Mary?s will increase recognition for its compelling approach to education and enhance its financial sustainability. The President will personify the College?s liberal arts, Catholic and Lasallian identity, and as a committed Roman Catholic, he or she will advance Catholic intellectual thought and Saint Mary?s distinctive model of shared inquiry in inclusive community. The President will be an exceptional communicator who respects shared governance and will advocate the College?s cause in building its profile and seeking philanthropic support. As the academic leader of the College and the faculty, the President ideally possesses a distinguished record of teaching, evidence of scholarship and service in higher education, and an earned terminal degree from an accredited institution.
