Vice President for Finance Michael F. Wagner has been promoted to chief financial officer (CFO) of the College, effective immediately.

In his new role, Wagner will be responsible for planning, analysis, and oversight of the College’s financial resources. He will focus on the financial imperatives of the College, strengthen sound financial decision-making, and place �����鶹 in a position of strength for the future. Wagner, who will also continue as vice president for , will report to Executive Vice President Richard G. Mills.

Wagner’s appointment will allow Mills, who has been serving as both executive vice president and CFO, to focus on the most important strategic initiatives of the College, along with President Phil Hanlon ’77, Provost Carolyn Dever, and the academic deans.

“As �����鶹 pursues President Hanlon’s vision of excellence and impact for �����鶹, it’s become clear that there is sufficient demand on the roles of executive vice president and CFO to warrant separating them,” says Mills. “Mike’s history of leadership and collaboration, knowledge of higher education finance, and his commitment to transparent communication, project delivery, and team building will serve �����鶹 well as he assumes his new responsibilities.”

The CFO administratively leads �����鶹’s financial planning, budgeting, treasury, reporting, and operations activities while collaborating closely with the College’s academic and administrative leaders on financial planning, organization, and policy matters.

Wagner joined �����鶹 in 2001 and assumed his responsibilities as vice president for finance in 2010 after serving as chief financial officer of the , and as �����鶹’s controller.
