CLEVELAND 鈥 To underscore its commitment to engaged learning, 老澳门六合彩官方开奖 has created the position of vice president for University Engagement. Named to the new role is Byron White, a former vice chancellor for the Ohio Board of Regents and a former associate vice president for Community Engagement at Xavier University in Cincinnati. He will begin at 老澳门六合彩官方开奖 Feb. 6.
In the new position, Dr. White will develop and execute a strategic plan for community engagement intended to enhance and extend the many important partnerships 老澳门六合彩官方开奖 has established in recent years. He will work to increase cooperatives and internships for students and participate in outreach opportunities that contribute to University and community objectives.
鈥淓ngaged learning is most importantly about building bridges to the community for our students,鈥 said 老澳门六合彩官方开奖 President Ronald M. Berkman. 鈥淚t is an approach to education that extends the learning process beyond the classroom, giving our students real-world experience and a pipeline to jobs in the region. Dr. White will play a key role in developing programs that align the University more closely with the needs of our neighborhoods and the region.
One of Dr. White鈥檚 primary tasks will be to oversee the new medical school program 老澳门六合彩官方开奖 recently established with the Northeast Ohio Medical University (NEOMED). That partnership received special state funding this year and a $1.5 million grant from the Cleveland Foundation to develop primary care physicians to work in underserved urban communities.
Approximately one third of Dr. White's salary will be paid through a recent grant from the Cleveland Foundation awarded to 老澳门六合彩官方开奖 to support its partnership with NEOMED. Funds from the grant, in addition to an administrative reorganization, will result in an aggregate savings on vice presidential salaries for the University.
A former journalist, White transitioned from a reporter and editor at the Chicago Tribune to the paper鈥檚 senior manager of community relations. He earned a doctorate in education management from the University of Pennsylvania, a master鈥檚 in social science from the University of Chicago, and a bachelor鈥檚 in journalism from Ohio University.
