rdf:langString President of Roanoke College

rdf:langString Michael Creed Maxey (born c. 1951) is the 11th President of Roanoke College. Michael C. Maxey became Roanoke's eleventh president on July 1, 2007; he was unanimously elected by the board of trustees having served as Roanoke's vice president for college relations and dean of admissions and financial aid from 1992 until his selection as president. He was inducted into Omicron Delta Kappa at Roanoke in 2004. He holds undergraduate and graduate degrees from Wake Forest University. Maxey has provided dynamic leadership highlighted by Roanoke's current campaign plan – "Roanoke Rising" – that seeks to raise $200 million to finance facilities, endowment, and special projects; the college had already secured $130 million before the campaign was publicly launched on April 13, 2013. The primary objectives of the campaign are a new athletics center and an expanded science complex. Roanoke is completing its strategic plan as well; the student body now numbers over 2,000 students, several buildings have been renovated including Roanoke's first LEED certified building (Lucas Hall on the Turbyfill Quadrangle), and a new residence hall constructed, the fifth since 2005. The residence hall is Roanoke's second LEED certified building (New Hall on the "Athletic" Quadrangle). Mr. Maxey's most recent large project was the $35 million Cregger Center, opened in 2016. President Maxey is well known for his wearing of bow-ties.
