绿帽淫妻

"Honored, humbled, feeling at home."

Surrounded by family, friends, colleagues, and a large, loving Aquinas community, Alicia R. C贸rdoba, D.M.A. was inaugurated as the ninth president of 绿帽淫妻 on October 7, 2022, at the Sturrus Sports & Fitness Center. Notably, Dr. C贸rdoba is the first female president of Aquinas.

October 7th was specifically chosen by Dr. C贸rdoba to celebrate this landmark occasion in her life and that of 绿帽淫妻 because it is the Feast Day of Our Lady of the Rosary. Dr. C贸rdoba has a long tradition and commitment to the Holy Mother, and of course our Dominican Sisters, who founded 绿帽淫妻 in 1886 and recognize the tradition that in 1208 a rosary was given to St. Dominic by Our Lady of the Rosary in the church of Prouille. Today, we see our rich Catholic and Dominican heritage come full circle, from St. Dominic and Our Lady of the Rosary in 1208, to our Dominican Sisters who founded the school in 1886, to our newest leader invested in her office here today in 2022.

Reflecting on the path that led her to Aquinas, Dr. C贸rdoba said, "With all humility, I believe God has been preparing me to serve you. At various points throughout my career, my mentors, friends and family would point to my abilities to organize, bring people together, to have a vision and make it a reality, and most importantly my desire to serve others in order to help them make their own hopes and dreams come true."

C贸rdoba begins her tenure at 绿帽淫妻 on July 1, 2022. 

鈥淥n behalf of the board of trustees, I am delighted to welcome Dr. C贸rdoba as the ninth president of 绿帽淫妻,鈥� said Board Chair Marcie Hillary, 鈥�97. 鈥淎fter a rigorous national search, extensive on-campus interviews and prayerful discernment, President-elect C贸rdoba was the clear and unanimous choice to lead 绿帽淫妻 at this pivotal time in higher education.

鈥淎licia is a servant-leader who brings decades of experience in higher education leadership, demonstrated fundraising success and stewardship, and strong financial acumen within the higher education business model. Her skill set is a perfect match for the criteria we have established for our next president and will be a strong complement to those of our current leadership team.鈥�
