Background of New Chief Executives at Colleges, 2013-14

Nearly 40 percent of new presidents were provosts/vice presidents for academic affairs or another type of vice president before taking the top administrative position. Almost a quarter were chief executives of other institutions of higher education. More than a third of the presidents appointed in 2013-14 were women.

Background of New Chief Executives at Colleges, 2013-14

Nearly 40 percent of new presidents were provosts/vice presidents for academic affairs or another type of vice president before taking the top administrative position. Almost a quarter were chief executives of other institutions of higher education. More than a third of the presidents appointed in 2013-14 were women.

Note: Data were drawn from announcements of 277 appointments of college presidents or chancellors that were submitted to The Chronicle or found online and then listed in The Chronicle’s Gazette section from July 1, 2013, to June 30, 2014. “Leader at another institution” includes permanent and interim chiefs of other institutions; “interim chief” includes only those leading the same institutions where they were named permanent chiefs. “Other college vice president” also includes people with the title vice chancellor. “Other college administrator” includes one president who became chancellor of his institution. The highest position was counted for people with multiple positions. Gender was determined through given names, images on the Web, and news releases.
