The Board of Trustees of the University of the South has chosen a distinguished historian and national leader in liberal arts education to be the University’s 16th president and vice chancellor.
On Jan. 6, the trustees elected John M. McCardell Jr., president emeritus of Middlebury College, following a national search that began in February 2009.
McCardell’s appointment is effective July 1. He succeeds Joel Cunningham, who will retire June 30, 2010, after 10 years as Vice Chancellor.
The Diocese of Kentucky is among the dioceses that founded and own the University of the South. For the complete news story and to send McCardell a greeting, visit this link (//about.sewanee.edu/vcannounce) on the university's Web site.
