Greetings, Monarch Nation!

It is truly an incredible honor to serve as the 9th President of Old Dominion University! My family and I are excited to officially become proud Monarchs and fully engage as tireless advocates of ODU and active members of the broader community.

I look forward to meeting our students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends in the weeks and months to come. Together, we will be forward-focused on our institution and our future!

Why Become a Donor

Old Dominion University strives to attract the finest students, to help us create the future we foresee. We are committed to making sure every student is successful and finishes all four years of college. When students don’t finish their degrees because they cannot afford to pay, we lose future nurses, teachers, engineers and community leaders who can improve and make a difference in the world. It is our desire that every student who has the capacity to flourish and succeed at ODU will be able to attend the university, regardless of their financial means.
