President Jeffrey R. Docking to give annual ‘State of the College Address’

ADRIAN, Mich. – With Adrian College’s Renaissance I officially completed, Renaissance II underway, and an enrollment of over 1,600 students, the College’s future is brighter than ever. Continuing this astronomical success demands additional plans.

On Friday, March 26, at 12:15 P.M. in the Adrian Tobias Room, during his annual State of the College Address, President Jeffrey R. Docking will talk about the need for creating a shared vision for Adrian College for the next five years.

“The purpose of this year’s address is to launch our second five year strategic plan, one built around high levels of excellence and far-reaching vision,” said President Docking. “This plan will serve as a road map; it will be collaborative and creative; it will be open to all those who want to be involved promoting broad participation.”

The State of the College is an annual tradition on the Adrian College campus usually taking place on or around the College’s anniversary and Founder’s Day of March 28.

The public and press are invited to attend the State of the College Address. Mark your calendars to either attend in person, or read/listen to the speech that afternoon on the Adrian College web site at www.adrian.edu. (Audio and print versions of the speech will be available on the College web site after 2 P.M. on the day of the address.)

In addition to the speech, a reception will take place immediately following in the Adrian Tobias Room.  President Docking will be available during this time for Q & A.

The Adrian Tobias Room is adjacent to Ritchie Marketplace (dining hall). A campus map is available online. Further information may be obtained by contacting Ashley Mittelmeier in the Adrian College Office of Public Relations at 517-264-3175 or via e-mail at amittelmeier@adrian.edu.
