Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: St. Vincent’s president a lightning rod for criticism
As H. James Towey finishes his second year as St. Vincent College president, there are benchmarks he enjoys sharing, including a 38 percent rise in student applications and an endowment that grew by a third last year.
Yet whenever he speaks to campus groups he also must be ready to confront persistent rumors at the college.
He hopes to lay some of those to rest tonight at a town hall meeting he regularly holds with students. The meeting may also provide an opportunity to address a recent letter some faculty members sent to St. Vincent’s board of directors that was highly critical of him.
