Chestnut Hill’s Sister Carol Jean Vale, among the nation’s longest-serving college presidents, prepares to retire
posted by the 98-year-old college as Vale prepares to say goodbye. “Her soul is infused in the walls.”June 30, is hands down the longest-serving college president in the region and one of the longest-serving in the nation. Consider the average tenure of a college president is about six and a half years.
“She has done a masterful job of navigating the various interests of the member institutions to identify those areas for collaboration,” said Beth Moy, chief of staff at Salus University and formerly the consortium’s executive director. Vale says she is most proud that she made “absolutely certain that the legacy of the Sisters of St. Joseph ... is firmly rooted in the life of the institution” and would remain after she is gone. The college offers orientation to all new hires and has sent some employees to a yearlong program on the legacy and history of the order, she said.
She told her parents she wanted to become Catholic. They were at first reluctant, but gave her permission when she was a high school senior. By that time, Vale had already met the Sisters of St. Joseph and knew she wanted to become a nun.
