FALL 2013
Welcome

Another academic year is in full swing! All of us at Academic Search send our best wishes for a productive and fulfilling year.

 

We're pleased to announce some new faces at Academic Search. Ann Die Hasselmo has returned to the firm after seven years as the founding president of the American Academic Leadership Institute (AALI). Ann was the Managing Director of Academic Search Consultation Service, the former name of Academic Search, and we're so pleased she is back with us. Ann's work in leadership development for AALI, our parent organization, has given her even more understanding of the qualities needed for successful academic leaders. Other new faces here at our firm are noted on the right.  

 

We're equally delighted that Tom Kepple, President Emeritus of Juniata College, is the new president of AALI. You can learn more about AALI and Tom below. 

 

We know that many of you are also proud of your new faces. We congratulate all of your appointments, and are especially proud of the appointments listed below, for clients we were honored to assist.
