College of Charleston selects Andrew Hsu of Ohio as its 23rd president
The College of Charleston’s next president will be Andrew T. Hsu, currently the provost and executive vice president for academic affairs at The University of Toledo.
Pending contract negotiations, Hsu will become the college’s first non-white president, according to members of the college’s Board of Trustees — a historic first for an institution that was chartered shortly after the Revolutionary War.
“Dr. Hsu has an incredible academic pedigree, possesses a wealth of experience that will serve him well in this role, and is incredibly passionate about representing the College of Charleston community,” said board member Demetria Clemons, who made the motion to select Hsu on Wednesday.
