  • WINTHROP MAGAZINE Winter 2015 MESSAGE from the PRESIDENT
    WINTHROP MAGAZINE Winter 2015 MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Friends: The campus community remains energized about the search for Winthrop’s 11th president. As you know, I have had the honor and privilege of serving as the university’s Acting President since last summer. This time of transition has been fruitful for the campus, as together we have made strides consonant with the campus priorities endorsed by the Winthrop University Board of Trustees: • Increase student enrollment, retention, and degree completion; • Continue to support excellence in academic and student life programming; • Enhance the work environment for faculty and staff; and, • Expand not only Winthrop’s role as a partner in the region’s economic growth but also the number of Winthrop supporters inspired to invest in the university’s future. In the not-too-distant future, I will return to my position as provost and vice president for academic affairs; and a new president will come aboard to lead our institution. The good work of the President Search Committee has brought us from more than 80 active candidates to three finalists who have just visited our campus to get to know our community and to be interviewed by representatives of key constituent groups. Feedback from these stakeholders even now shapes discussion among board members who will soon select Winthrop’s next president. My deep appreciation goes out to all who have participated in the search and to those who have watched the process with interest from afar. Your input has been invaluable. I also thank you for the support you have given me personally during this time, as we have worked together to ensure that students remain our highest priority at Winthrop and that they continue to receive the exemplary education for which this university is known.

He is well known for his impressions of famous actors Morgan Freeman, Al Pacino, Robin Williams and Robert DeNiro; politicians George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama; broadcasters John Madden, Charles Barkley and Jon Gruden; and talk show hosts Dr. Phil, Jay Leno, and David Letterman. On stage, Caliendo’s high energy act is a blend of observations, impressions, characters and anecdotal stories that start at a frenetic pace and never let up. Appropriately described by the Hollywood Reporter as "a combination of Robin Williams and Jim Carrey," Caliendo is one comedian that should not be missed. After completing an impressive 10-year run on the FOX NFL Sunday Pregame show, Frank recently found a new home over at ESPN, where he joined the cast of the Sunday NFL Countdown. Realizing that ESPN has a plethora of strong personalities, Frank has added to his already vast arsenal of impressions, a new set of highly entertaining sports persona, including analysts like Jon Gruden, Mel Kiper, Jr., Ron “Jaws” Jaworski, Coach Mike Ditka, Adam Schefter, and Chris “Boomer” Berman. Beyond ESPN’s NFL show, Frank’s segments have appeared on Sports Center and his “Gruden QB Camp” segments and Super Bowl “Richard Sherman 30 for 30” mocumentary have gone viral across the web. An eleven year veteran of television sketch comedy as a cast member on MADtv and starring in his own series Frank TV, Caliendo has been a fixture on television for the last decade.

    THE RIGGLE ERA BEGINS ON FOX NFL SUNDAY Actor/Comedian Rob Riggle Joins America's Favorite Pregame Show For Weekly Segment Debuting Sunday, Sept. 9 New York – FOX Sports has invited Rob Riggle, one of America’s funniest comedians, to join Terry Bradshaw, Curt Menefee, Howie Long, Jimmy Johnson, Michael Strahan, and Jay Glazer on FOX NFL SUNDAY, Americas No. 1 NFL pregame show. The announcement was made today live on-air during the network’s coverage of the San Francisco 49ers vs. Denver Broncos preseason game. An actor, comedian , and writer, Riggle assumes the role of the show’s comedic prognosticator in a weekly segment where in addition to lampooning the game, its stars and his co-stars, he challenges Bradshaw, Long, Johnson and Strahan as they vie for the coveted “Lead Dog” trophy for the most correct selections at season’s end. “We’ve been No. 1 since Day 1 because we’ve never strayed from our formula to inform and entertain in the right mix, and our audience is going to really like Rob’s comedy and what he brings to the show,” said producer Bill Richards. Riggle is best known for his starring role in the hit movie 21 Jump Street , as well as hilarious roles in blockbuster films such as The Hangover and Step Brothers . He’s also a former Saturday Night Live cast member and Daily Show correspondent, and recently hosted the 2012 ESPYs . None of those roles are more important than Riggle’s distinguished military background. Currently a Lieutenant Colonel in the United States Marine Corps Reserves, he has served our nation in uniform for 22 years, including nine years as an active duty service member.
