2025 Speaker Series with President Kendra S. Boggess, Ph.D

The Canyon Rim Rotary Club is proud to present our 2025 Speaker Series, "Your State, Your Future"! Our March speaker is Dr. Kendra Boggess, President of Concord University. Dr. Boggess was appointed Concord University’s 12th President by the Board of Governors on April 22, 2014. She is the university’s first female president and has led Concord through a transformative period marked by significant growth and resilience in the face of various challenges.
Under Dr. Boggess’s leadership, Concord University, along with the CU Foundation achieved numerous milestones and improvements. Notable projects include the comprehensive renovation of the Twin Towers dormitory, enhancing student living conditions with modern amenities. Additionally, the addition of an on-campus student health center, upgrades to athletic facilities such as the track renovation and other infrastructure improvements have been pivotal in enhancing Concord’s ability to support its students and community.
In terms of academics, Dr. Boggess and her faculty administration expanded Concord’s offerings by introducing new programs in Nursing, Physician Assistant Studies, Substance Use Studies, Cybersecurity, Data Analytics, Masters of Business Administration, and various minors in programs developed to enhance graduate studies as well as student employability. Her advocacy also led to the creation of West Virginia’s first Varsity Esports Team and a major in Esports, underscoring her commitment to advancing innovative educational opportunities and meeting student interests.
Additionally, during her tenure she, the faculty, and her Grant’s staff have increased funding exponentially to support Faculty and Student research, academic programming, and student support services.
