Dr. Stanley P. Caine, president of Adrian College, has announced that he will retire June 30, 2005.

He made the announcement at the winter meeting of the Adrian College Board of Trustees this past Saturday (Feb. 21). He decided to make the announcement now in order to provide sufficient time for the board to organize and conduct a search for a new president.

“Stan Caine has truly made a difference here at Adrian College: in our mission and values, in our success as an educational community, and in the lives of each of us,” board chair Gary Valade said. “On behalf of the board, I offer him congratulations and deep and genuine appreciation at the time of this announcement.

“We are also grateful that the college will continue to enjoy his leadership as president for the full 2004-2005 academic year,” Valade continued.

Dr. Caine became president of Adrian College in 1989. When he retires, he will be 65 years old and will have served as president for 16 years.

“Serving as Adrian's president has been the most challenging and the most satisfying portion of my professional career,” Dr. Caine said. “I have had the privilege of helping to provide leadership for a fine college in a great community.”
