"Governor McDonnell used great wisdom in appointing these members to the University's board, and I am grateful for his understanding of the challenges facing higher education. This is a group of distinguished individuals - from higher education and technology to government and health care - who will be able to hit the ground running. Their collective expertise will be invaluable, as there is much work to be done"
