Max Carter: Director of the Friends Center/Campus Ministry Coordinator
We will need to have an administration committed to positioning the college squarely within the community of colleges deeply informed by Quaker principles. We will need to seek out and hire faculty and staff excited about being part of a community of learning that takes seriously the life of the mind as well as the life of the Spirit. We will need to recruit a student body that desires to grow in truth, accessing both the riches of the Quaker tradition and the resources of the faculty and fellow students.

Randy Doss: Vice President for Enrollment and Campus Life
What I hope will change will be more courses and full-time professors (who are compensated above the average of our peer and competitors) in existing programs, refurbished residence halls and campus facilities and more interaction with the city and with other colleges. I want to see even more activities for students during the week and weekends.
In the absence of major gifts to the college (which we all hope will happen,) the way to achieve these goals is to grow the size of the college. Judy Harvey: Director of Multicultural Education
As Director of Multicultural Education, I am (predictably) interested in a culturally diverse campus. I am encouraged by our growing numbers of multicultural students, but the growing numbers are not my top priority. I am most interested in Guilford learning how to honor and celebrate the history, culture and traditions of all of our students. I don’t want our multi-cultural students to feel they have to leave themselves at home when they study here.

Jim Hood: Assoc. Professor of English and Associate Academic Dean
Personally, I think we should focus our efforts for increasing enrollment on retention; this means that we need to make Guilford the first choice for more students and we need to be careful to admit students likely to succeed here. I will always favor recruiting students who are highly motivated academically and who have talents (arts, sports, organization, writing, etc.) that can make Guilford a better place while they are here and after they graduate. This applies to traditional and CCE students.

Jack Register: Queer & Allied Resource Coordinator
I am the Queer Resource Staff member. We currently have approx 25-30 active members of PRIDE and the Q.U.A.R.C. Our list is confidential, and very dynamic. I would see our role growing as more and more students become comfortable discussing these issues on campus. I would like to see more CCE folk [in our group].
Vance Ricks: Assistant Professor of Philosophy
As the new director of the Honors program, I have several goals and hopes for it.
Students who are invited into the program should be invited not just because they’re “smart”, but also because they will actually enliven the campus intellectual and/or artistic life.
