Colleagues

Moravian has been named to the Annapolis Group, an organization of leading national independent liberal arts colleges.

The coalition was formed 10 years ago by Franklin and Marshall, Gettysburg, and Dickinson Colleges, joined by 20 similar institutions. Their presidents began meeting in Annapolis,

Maryland, to discuss common concerns. It now includes 117 Carnegie Baccalaureate I institutions.

In addition to Moravian, new members this year are Hollins University, Virginia; Kalamazoo College, Michigan; and William Jewell College, Missouri.

President Rokke and Curt Keim, dean of the faculty, attended the group’s June 15-17 annual meeting in Annapolis. Topics discussed: affirmative action in admissions, accreditation, media trends, the Pathway Program, and financial issues such as cuts, capital campaigns, and endowments.
