'The perfect fit': Benedictine University, BenU1887, to welcome new president
The Benedictine board of trustees unanimously selected Joseph J. Foy from a field of national candidates for the post. Foy replaces Charles Gregory, who is retiring this August after four years as university president.
Six years ago, Alverno was recognized as Wisconsin's first Hispanic-serving institution by the U.S. Department of Education. Alverno reported enrolling 1,596 undergraduate and graduate students in the fall of 2022. Hispanic or Latino students made up a quarter of the student body. As Alverno's interim president, Foy helped created a plan to make the college a more culturally inclusive community. Foy established a new Office of Equity, Diversity and Belonging led by Alverno's inaugural chief diversity officer. Foy also developed a new dual degree program in public health with the Medical College of Wisconsin.
Plans for an inauguration event will be made after Foy starts working at the Benedictine campus this July and the academic year begins at the end of August, the spokesman said.
