DR. CHARLES STEGER UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT Now in his eighth year as President of Virginia Tech, Dr. Charles Steger has charted a course to bolster the university’s research enterprise and compete among the nation’s premier research institutions. Under his direction, the university has adopted a strategic plan, which is guiding the growth of the research enterprise, fostering outreach initiatives, and increasing quality across all aspects of the academic community. Earlier this year, the tranquil learning environment of Virginia Tech was suddenly shattered by an outburst of incomprehensible violence that left more than 50 students and faculty killed or injured. During this crisis, President Steger showed tremendous courage, compassion and leadership in bringing the university community together in the immediate aftermath of the tragedy and in the beginning stages of recovery. His leadership continues to draw praise from students, parents, alumni as well as from those with no direct connection with the university but who, from points around the world, witnessed the events. Also this year, Steger joined with Gov. Tim Kaine and Carilion Health Systems president Dr. Ed Murphy to announce the creation of a new medical school in Virginia. Virginia Tech and Carilion will create a jointly-operated private medical school, located in downtown Roanoke, adjacent to Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital. Gov. Kaine said it was an “important initiative to help meet the health workforce and medical research needs of our state, as well as to strengthen the economy of the region.” In the minds of many, Steger will best be remembered for making the impossible a reality. He will be forever credited with negotiating Virginia Tech’s entrance into the Atlantic Coast Conference — a 50-year dreamcome-true for Hokie fans. Another of the most memorable contributions of Steger’s administration was his role in the Higher Education Restructuring Act, which took effect in July, 2006. Steger was one of the leaders among university presidents to help define a ground-breaking new relationship between the Commonwealth of Virginia and its colleges and universities, which enables greater institutional flexibility and potential for growth. This legislation allows Virginia Tech to perform long-range planning, ensure a stable and predictable revenue stream, and ultimately ensure a quality education for its students. A hallmark of Steger’s administration is his commitment to the students. With Steger’s leadership, the university has reaffirmed its core mission of undergraduate education. The university is dedicated to fostering a researchintensive environment that offers students an opportunity to learn the scientific process while enhancing their critical-thinking skills. Recognizing that students, upon graduation, will be entering a global economy, Virginia Tech initiated a comprehensive International Strategic Plan and has doubled the number of students participating in international education opportunities. Research activity continues to steadily increase, and the focus of the research enterprise continues to widen. Shortly after Steger took office, the university launched the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute, which in seven years has already secured well over $50 million in external research funding. Virginia Tech has also partnered with a number of other universities to further leverage its research strengths and resources, including Johns Hopkins University, Wake Forest University, University of Virginia, University of Maryland and Georgetown University. Concurrent with the expanding research agenda, the university has expanded its outreach efforts like never before. For example, Virginia Tech has partnered in numerous initiatives in Southern Virginia, including the renowned Institute for Advanced Learning and Research (IALR), which are advancing both educational and economic development opportunities. Virginia Tech remains one of the most competitive institutions in the state. The university received a record 19,579 applications for the class entering in the fall of 2007. Students offered admission raised the academic bar with an average math and critical reading SAT score of 1229 and an average high school GPA of 3.82. The 2007 application pool also was more diverse by gender and race, with greater numbers of Asian, African-American and Hispanic- American students. The university also has established the Virginia Tech Principles of Community, which affirm the university’s commitment to civility and respect for all people. In his previous role as Vice President for Development and University Relations, Steger built a critical base of private support when he led the Campaign for Virginia Tech, which raised more than $337 million. Today, private support from Virginia Tech’s alumni and friends continues to play an essential role in this university community. Last year, the university raised more than $67 million, a 23.5 percent increase over the previous year. Steger’s ties to Virginia Tech span five decades as a student, professor, dean, vice president and now president. While on the faculty, he twice won teaching excellence awards. When he became dean of the College of Architecture and Urban Studies in 1981, he was, at age 33, the youngest architecture dean in the nation. His most recent publications include book chapters on the topics of the business of education and the university presidency. Steger is past-Chairman of the Virginia Council of Presidents and is currently chair of the Virginia Space Grant Consortium. He is a member of the National Council on Competitiveness and the Association of Governing Boards of Universities and Colleges. For his significant contributions to the mission of The National Conference for Community and Justice, he received the NCCJ Humanitarian Award in 2002. The New Century Technology Council awarded him its 2004 Compass Award for visionary thinking and leadership in the field of information technology. Steger also serves on the boards of several organizations including the Carilion Biomedical Institute, the Council of Higher Education’s General and Professional Advisory Committee, the Virginia Business Higher Education Council, the World Institute for Disaster Risk Management, and the Roanoke Economic Development Partnership. He has been appointed by four Governors of Virginia to serve on various boards, study commissions and work groups including, the Steering Committee of the Governor’s Higher Education Summit, Virginia Institute for Defense and Homeland Security, Secure Virginia Initiative, and the Board of Directors of the Innovative Technology Authority. He is a Fellow in the American Institute of Architects, and holds the William C. Noland Award for distinguished service and accomplishments from the Virginia Society of the AIA. The First Virginia Chapter of the National Society of Fundraising Executives recognized him as the Outstanding Fundraising Executive in 1999. Steger received his bachelor of architecture degree, master of architecture degree and Ph.D., in environmental science and engineering from Virginia Tech. 2 0 0 7 - 2 0 0 8 V I R G I N I A T E C H M E N’ S B A S K E T B A L L UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT CHARLES STEGER 167
