Over fall break Freesia McKee ’12 digitized the two most useful histories of the College.

Warren Wilson College’s eight-month search for a new president led the college not only outside academia, but also far beyond the United States to its successful conclusion.

Steven L. Solnick, Ph.D., New Delhi Representative for the Ford Foundation since 2008, has been named by the Warren Wilson College Board of Trustees as the college’s seventh president, effective in July 2012. He will succeed Sandy Pfeiffer, who is retiring in June after six years as president.

With hunger a persistent problem, the annual Service Day Aug. 24 will focus on food security for the third straight year.

Over the years Warren Wilson has been fortunate to welcome many eminent individuals to campus, even aside from the College’s springtime

Although Nov. 15 is the early-decision deadline, extensions will be given to those affected by Hurricane Sandy.

Question: Thanks for setting up for this system and for the opportunity to ask questions. I often feel like I’m so focused on the day-to-day of my own job that it’s easy to lose track of what else is going on the at the College. Richard’s regular reports from the Admission and Advancement Office are great and make me feel very informed about what’s going on at Orr Cottage. Would it be possible for other PAC members to send out regular reports via email about what their divisions are doing? I think it would help staff and faculty feel less isolated in their own work and more connected to the College as a whole. (Submitted by Sharon Withrow)
