Meet President Atwater
Born in Nashville but raised around the world, Dr. Tony Atwater, IUP’s twenty-fourth president, had lived and learned on three different continents by the time he was fifteen. Not surprisingly, his world-view and his deep appreciation for, and awareness of, diversity are among the many strengths he brings to IUP as an educator and a leader.
In fact, one of the many institutional priorities Dr. Atwater referred to in his October 2005 inaugural address was the urgent need for IUP to continue to move forward in strategic ways in order to avoid being overrun by rapidly evolving market forces and necessities on a regional, national, and global scale.
