Radford University welcomed President Brian Hemphill as he recently took over the position following a selection process that spanned several months.
“Throughout my academic and professional
journey, I have been mentored by outstanding leaders who taught me many
lessons,” Hemphill
said in a letter to the university. “These individuals
taught me the importance and vital role that a public university plays in our
society by producing individuals who will lead with an unwavering commitment to
public service. At Radford University, we will continue our mission of
providing the best education and overall experience for our students.”
Hemphill emphasized Radford’s strong
commitment to the caliber of its faculty and to providing students with
opportunities to excel. He also highlighted the strength of Radford’s student
achievements, both in classrooms on campus and in their professional fields
after graduation.
“I sincerely look forward to engaging with
the entire campus community. Over the course of the coming months, I will
continue to meet with members of the Highlander family to learn more about
Radford University and our collective aspirations for the future,” said
Hemphill. "I encourage you to join me in these important discussions about key
initiatives to move Radford University forward with an unwavering commitment to
excellence, accountability, transparency and student-centeredness.”
