After leading the university for over 19 years, President Meyer and his wife Evie have announced their retirement. Dr. Meyer's original written announcement regarding a retirement date effective July 1, 2017, to the Board of Trustees on Wednesday, April 6, became an announcement on Thursday, April 7, to faculty and staff and then to students on Friday, April 8, that Dr. Meyer and Evie will be retiring effective July 1, 2016. The reason for the one year earlier date for their retirement came after the Board voted unanimously on a resolution to grant both Dr. Meyer and Evie a one-year sabbatical, with full pay and benefits, as an expression of love and appreciation from the Board of Trustees for their dedicated years of service to the University of Valley Forge.
We can't thank the Meyers enough for all they have done to advance the mission of the university: To prepare individuals for a life of service and leadership in the church and in the world.
We feel the best way to update you with this exciting news is to share with you on our website the communique that President Meyer prepared for his Facebook page provided via the link below.
Please join us in congratulating Dr. and Mrs. Don Meyer.
