Abstract:
Dr. John Weems retired in June 1999 as president of Meredith College, after twenty-eight years of service. Known as a visionary leader and thinker, Weems saw a number of changes during his tenure. The college had a $2 million deficit when he arrived; he leaves the school debt free and financially stable; enrollment up by 1,200; and faculty positions, as well as the number of degrees, almost doubled.
