Clinton College President

Posted
Rock Hill, SC, November 26, 2024: The Clinton College Board of Trustees is pleased to announce its search for an energetic, educationally qualified, and mission-focused individual to serve as the College’s new President. Clinton College is a historically black, private institution with a strong liberal arts tradition. The college was founded in 1894 by the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church to meet the needs of descendants of slaves who did not have access to higher education.

For well over a century, Clinton has provided a learning milieu for eager students and dedicated faculty and staff to engage in an educational process that focuses on high academic achievement and positive moral, ethical and spiritual development. The learning opportunities promoted by this process results in capable graduates with leadership qualities and civic behaviors to make significant contributions to the global society.

Strategically situated in the business and educational corridor between Charlotte, NC, and Columbia, SC, Clinton College is a Christian-based institution located in Rock Hill, SC. As a fully accredited higher education entity, it offers both associate and bachelor’s degrees and has a mixed-generational student body. Currently, Clinton is entering a growth phase featuring increases and advancements in student enrollment, physical plant, state and federal funding, and alumni and community support. The new President of Clinton College will have opportunities to leverage and directly apply his or her skills, knowledge, and experience in the areas of Leadership, Administration and Planning, Communication, Personnel Management, External Relations, fundraising, and (in some cases) Teaching.

The successful candidate for the Presidency of Clinton College will have the education, training, and experience to be able to demonstrate (among other things) the following:

• a commitment to holistic student development and a vibrant Christian faith.

• an understanding of the multi-faceted demands of the academic enterprise at the collegiate level.

• a deep commitment to academics and be resolute in advocating for academic integrity, intellectual freedom, and excellence in and out of the classroom.

• a high interpersonal versatility, with a drive to succeed through and with others.

• a strategic and aligned operational approach to planning and task completion that advances the college in academic, social/community, physical, and technological areas.
