Cedarville U. President Steps Down to Take Chancellor Position
CEDARVILLE -- William E. Brown, Ph.D., president of Cedarville University since 2003, will become the next chancellor of the University. Brown shared with the student body in Chapel this morning that he will step down as president, effective June 30, 2013.

“Serving the faculty, staff, and students at Cedarville University has been a true joy for Lynne and me during the past 10 years,” said Brown, referring to him and his wife. “The past 10 years is a testimony to the fact that as Christians, when we humble ourselves and serve the Lord fully, he will bless our work for his glory.”

During Brown’s tenure has constructed new facilities or renovated existing ones, including the Center for Biblical and Theological Studies building in 2008 and the Health Sciences Center in 2012. Also, all of the residence halls have been remodeled so that students have more modern living conditions. Since 2003, more than $60 million has been raised.

Student enrollment has increased from 2,996 in 2003 to 3,386 this year. The school says the increase is largely due to Brown’s vision to strategically reassess the University’s financial aid.

But buildings and academic programs are only a part of Dr. Brown’s legacy and impact at Cedarville University, according to school officials. Perhaps his greatest strength is his transparency with individuals and the relationships he’s fostered on campus with students, faculty, staff, and alumni.

“When I think about Dr. Brown, I think about the caring compassion he showed everyone,” said Zak Weston, Student Government President and a senior from Grand Rapids, Mich. “The most important person in his life is the person who is in front of him at the moment.”

A presidential search committee will soon be established and begin seeking the next president. The University will also be planning opportunities for the University family and its constituents to honor Dr. Brown for his years of faithful service.
