Out in Front provides college and university presidents, especially new presidents, as well as aspiring presidents, with insight on how to be the public face of the college or university. While many programs and books provide opportunities for developing leadership skills, very little is available on just what is involved in being the one person that everyone immediately associates with the school. For many presidents, this ends up being a kind of trial by fire experience. This book fills that gap by providing first hand insights from sitting presidents in higher education on how to deal with some of the most pressing day-to-day situations that leaders in higher education face.

Lawrence V. Weill assumed his duties as the second president of Gordon College on April 1, 2002. Dr. Weill holds degrees in mathematics, humanities, and higher education. He taught English and philosophy for twenty-five years in several community colleges in Kentucky, as well as being a dean of academic affairs. Dr. Weill has published numerous papers on the arts, student advisement and peer tutoring. For more information on Dr. Weill, visit www.lawrenceweill.com.
