As we approach the one-year anniversary of deep social reckoning, I am reflecting on how hopeful I feel about Nazareth College and our place in our communities near and far. We’ve persevered and changed for the better, and that ingenious change will continue to help us grow well into the future.
To help our strong community move forward, I have exciting news to share. Darrell Bell will join us in May as Nazareth’s new vice president for advancement. After a four-month search, the search committee overwhelmingly knew that Darrell is the right candidate for the job and for Nazareth.
In my conversations with Darrell, it is clear to me that he shares our values and is excited by our mission. Darrell brings strong leadership skills and deep experience. I am excited that he is ready to jump into this exceptional opportunity for new vision and direction. I am eager to join with Darrell in engaging alumni and current and new donors to invest in Nazareth’s transformational role in our community and society, and to partner with him as we prepare to create an inspiring and innovative advancement strategy for powering Nazareth’s next 100 years.
Here is the full news release about Vice President for Advancement Darrell Bell.
Given the need for confidentiality in the search process, we were unable to include an open campus forum in the interview process. Thus, I have asked Darrell to hold an open campus forum this spring so you and he have an opportunity to get to know one another. I invite you to welcome Darrell to Nazareth and join us in conversation on Thursday, April 22, at 12:15 p.m. on Zoom.
I am very grateful to the search committee, co-chaired by Liz Cronin and Brigid Noonan, for their thoughtful engagement in this important search. Their insights, observations, and questions were very helpful in guiding the successful conclusion of this search.
