    Summer 2009 Summer 2009 Volume 17 Volume 17 Bellevue University’s Next President By Mary B. Hawkins, Ph.D. President Bellevue University I deeply appreciate and am honored by the confidence the Board of Directors and Dr. John Muller have placed in me through my appointment as President of the University. It is a tremendous opportunity to lead such a dynamic institution. The fact that I will be only the fourth president here in 44 years speaks volumes about the stability of Bellevue University’s leadership, the quality of its faculty and staff, and the vitality and constancy of its mission. On the first day of classes in 1966, the institution’s motto was, “Where the student counts.” The same commitment to the success of students drives everything we do today as well as our vision for the future. Through the years, Bellevue University has built a strong track record and reputation for serving what were once called “non-traditional” college students – working adults age - - 25 and older. Today we call them “adult learners,” and they comprise about 40 percent of U.S. college students. That was not the case four decades ago. Higher education has changed and Bellevue University is a leader in that change. Whatever you call them, our students really are individuals who have seen and experienced first-hand the value and importance of education in building better careers and lives for themselves and their families, and ultimately, a better society. Bellevue University has succeeded and grown by meeting their needs. This institution has an ambitious vision for the future – national prominence in educating career-oriented students.
