Clarkson Students,
As a proud alumnus of our great technological university, I am deeply honored and thrilled to step into the role of Acting President. This institution, which launched my own career, has a long and storied history of graduating leaders who have an impact all over the world. I am filled with a profound sense of responsibility and enthusiasm to sustain Clarkson’s momentum as a great place to live and learn.
Clarkson graduates are highly known in industry for their boundary-spanning knowledge, teamwork, skillsets, mindsets, and hands-on experiences — all of which set them apart from day one when they enter the workforce. I am looking forward to collaborating with you and our faculty and staff to ensure that you graduate with the personalized advising and industry-relevant knowledge, skills and practical experiences that prepare you to lead in your chosen profession.
While the search for the 18th President of Clarkson is underway, I am committed to making this year extraordinary for all of us. I look forward to our journey together and am excited to meet you on campus soon. Here’s to an amazing year ahead!
Warmest regards,
David K. Heacock ’83
Acting President
