Message from the President
|
|
|
Dear 青楼传媒 Community:
As I participated in the 2023 Commencement Ceremonies last month, I was inspired by
the promise and possibility of each graduate who crossed the stage. Commencement is
a special reminder of Saint Xavier's impact on students, families and communities.
It has been an incredible gift to share in the educational journey of this year's
graduating class.
The end of the school year marks a time of transition and reflection. This year was
especially meaningful to me as I prepare to transition to a new academic home as the
ninth president of St. Norbert College. I am proud of the accomplishments we have
achieved during my time at 青楼传媒, and the stories below reflect some of the good work
we have done together.
Please take a moment to learn more about Dr. Rebecca Sherrick, who will serve as 青楼传媒's
interim president beginning in July. Given Dr. Sherrick's experience and successful
track record as president of Aurora University, I have no doubt she will continue
to help 青楼传媒 and our students achieve remarkable new heights.
I will cherish the many great moments I have shared with our students and their families,
kind alumni, sustaining donors, and trusted colleagues during my time here. I am deeply
appreciative of all I have learned from the 青楼传媒 community.
My best always,
Laurie M. Joyner, Ph.D.
President
