Morehouse College Appoints New President, John Wilson Jr.


It was announced Monday, November 12th, that the Board of Trustees had unanimously selected Dr. John Silvanus Wilson, Jr. to be the 11th president of Morehouse College.

It was last January when Dr. Franklin, the current President, informed the Morehouse College family that he would be leaving his post. At that point the Presidential Search Committee jumped into action, and spent the subsequent months working with the professional search firm Heidrick & Struggles to identify a candidate best qualified to be his successor.

The man they picked was the 1979 Morehouse graduate and esteemed educator with over 25 years of experience, Dr. John Wilson.

Dr. Wilson seems poised to know and fix the current trials and tribulations of an acclaimed HBCU, because he is the former executive director of the White House Initiative on Historically Black Colleges and Universities.

Smart move by Morehouse people. John Wilson at the helm with Barack still in office will be very beneficial for them.
 
Hmmmmm yall are praising Wilson like he actually did something in his term as the ED for the White House Initiative on Historically Black Colleges and Universities. He was not praised for his work throughout his tenure. However, hopefully he will be more productive at his alma mater. His connections in DC should hopefully help him..... at least for the next four years.

Quiet as it kept also, MHouse got a few problems.... They not hitting numbers.
