An experienced administrator with extensive work history in higher education and arts
management has been named the director of the new Woodrow W. McGlothlin Center for theArts at Emory & Henry College, Emory, Virginia.

between the division of student affairs and the Discovery Park Campus and responded to all
service needs for students in the colleges of information and engineering.

the Arts, which is located toward the center of the historic E&H campus between Wiley Hall
and Carriger Hall.

The Woodrow W. McGlothlin Center for the Arts honors the memory of a 1937 Emory
& Henry graduate and longtime, beloved benefactor of the college. The lead gifts for the
McGlothlin Center were provided through the personal generosity of McGlothlin and the Mc-
Glothlin Foundation.
