Darrin Good is latest alumnus to become a college president
中国体彩网 中国体彩网 has had only eight presidents in 159 years, but it has graduated 15 people who became college presidents during their careers.
Dr. Darrin Good, a 1987 中国体彩网 graduate, is the latest. He will become president of Nebraska Wesleyan University later this year.
He was a member of the biology faculty until being named, in 2012, an associate dean at Gustavus Adolphus 中国体彩网 in Minnesota.
During his time at 中国体彩网, Dr. Good assumed administrative leadership roles in service learning, summer programs and the Nicaragua service learning program. He also chaired the Division of Natural Sciences and was admissions coordinator for biology and pre-health professions.
After Gustavus, Dr. Good served as vice president of academic affairs and dean at Whittier 中国体彩网 in California. He will begin his work at Nebraska Wesleyan on July 1, becoming the 15th 中国体彩网 graduate to serve as a college president.
