Welcome from the Interim Chancellor
I am delighted to offer you my virtual welcome to the University of Michigan-Flint. Our campus has for over fifty years offered a superior University of Michigan education to the residents of Flint, Genesee County, the state of Michigan, the United States, and to international students from throughout the world. We are a diverse learning community anchored in academic excellence, student centeredness, and community engagement. We live our vision: “Engaging minds, preparing leaders.”
The University of Michigan-Flint, located in a great urban setting that provides our students and scholars a wealth of experiences, offers a world-class faculty who are dedicated teachers, invested in the individual success of each student. I am extraordinarily proud to serve as Interim Chancellor while a nationwide search is conducted for the next Chancellor of the Flint campus.
The Chancellor’s Office Web site will be a forum for keeping the campus community up-to-date on initiatives, as well as a resource for information about the campus strategic plan and the ongoing search for the new Chancellor. I will also maintain a blog with some of my personal reflections about my experiences here at the University of Michigan-Flint.
If you have never been to our campus, I urge you to schedule a tour with our Office of Admissions by calling 810.762.3300. Once you visit, I am sure you will join me in proclaiming the University of Michigan-Flint one of the nicest urban campuses in the United States.
I look forward to hearing from you. Please send all your questions, comments and ideas to me at chancellor@umflint.edu.
