Oglethorpe University President Larry D. Large today announced the selection of Artie Lee Travis as vice president for student affairs and community life at Oglethorpe. Travis will begin work at Oglethorpe in January 2000.
Students are the heart of our institution.
They come here to get an outstanding liberal arts education, but the experience is more than just what happens in the classroom. As a student affairs professional with more than 18 years of experience, Artie brings with him a demonstrated commitment to students. I look forward to working with him as he becomes an integral member of our staff. Travis will succeed Donald R. Moore who will retire December 31. Moore has served as vice president for student affairs and dean of community life at Oglethorpe since 1986.
