MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT


Dear Friends:


A few short months ago my family and I were settling into the President’s House and becoming members of the Winthrop community. Now, we are halfway through a busy and exciting fall semester.


At Convocation I shared with our freshmen that I have a lot in common with them this year. As a new university president, I have followed the same tips for success I shared with them. I have been meeting new people, getting involved by attending different events on campus and in Rock Hill, and embracing the “All In” attitude by leading initiatives that are helping shape Winthrop’s bright future. And I’m having fun doing it!


The two most common questions I have received since July are: “What are your plans for Winthrop?” and “What challenges need addressing?” I answered these questions, and several more, in a Q&A article that you will find on pages 2-7 in this edition of Winthrop Magazine.


Let me reiterate that Winthrop’s future is indeed very bright. This institution is fiscally strong, and we’ve begun the initial work of forming the university’s strategic plan that will serve as our road map to further success. This inclusive process is allowing voices from all constituent groups to be heard, including yours as Winthrop alumni and friends of the university.


I look forward to meeting more of you, while on campus or at alumni events across the state, and hearing your thoughts and stories about Winthrop. I deeply appreciate your support of your alma mater, and I look forward to working with you on behalf of Winthrop.


Sincerely,


Daniel F. Mahony President
