Prescott College 2020: Who Are We and Where Are We Going? Prescott College is entering an exciting time in its history. With a new president and the initial development stages of a ten-year strategic plan, the College has a unique opportunity to build on its strengths and shape its future. President Woolever will share her vision for the future and provide a forum for others to participate in this early visioning process.
Dr. Woolever comes to Prescott College from the University of New Hampshire at Manchester, where she served as Dean and Director of the Campus. Under her leadership, UNH Manchester has significantly expanded enrollments and programs in applied science, technology, and business—all based on a strong liberal arts foundation. She has forged new partnerships with the city and surrounding region which have expanded the university’s impact, and has championed the university’s increased outreach to the community.
Her experience spans a wide range of academic and administrative areas. Prior to coming to UNH Manchester, Woolever led the Antioch Center for Creative Change at Antioch University Seattle in a reorganization that included the development of alternative course delivery models and innovative, cross-disciplinary graduate programs in environmental studies, management, organizational psychology, systems thinking, and strategic communication.
At Northeastern University in Boston, Mass., Woolever served in a number of positions between 1983 and 2000, including Director of Assessment, Interim Dean of Cooperative Education, Director of English Department Graduate Studies, and Acting Chair and Professor of English. While there, she co-founded and directed Northeastern’s Graduate Technical and Professional Writing Programs.
As a professional communications consultant, she has worked with local, national, and multi-national corporations in a wide variety of industries. She has also served as a Senior Fellow at the New England Board of Higher Education, where she directed the Communicating Science and Technology Project, a project that included participants from all six New England states.
Woolever earned her Ph.D. and M.A. in English at the University of Pittsburgh, and her B.A. in English from Allegheny College. She has written seven books focused on professional communication and numerous articles on a range of topics related to writing and communication in business, engineering and law. When not in the office she can be found bicycling, kayaking, or planting roses.
