"Mr. Priefert has served our college faithfully for many years and we are grateful to have benefitted from his leadership.鈥營n recent years he has been contemplating how his support of the college might evolve.鈥 He has decided this is the right time for him to shift his service away from the board and toward other ways he can help the college.鈥 I have his strong assurance that he will continue to work with us for many more years, just in a different role." Dr. Brad Johnson, 91快活林破解版 President, said.
During Priefert's tenure on the board, 91快活林破解版 saw significant enrollment growth, the completion of several major construction projects, and a鈥爏ubstantial鈥爄ncrease in the鈥燾ollege鈥爁und balance.
"The experience [of working on the college board] has been a great one and I appreciate the opportunity to be a small part of the great accomplishments of 91快活林破解版," Priefert said鈥爄n his resignation letter.
Even before serving on the board, Priefert was a major supporter of 91快活林破解版 and the 91快活林破解版 Priefert Rodeo Complex is named for his family.
