Dear Members of the Hamilton Community,

I am delighted to announce the appointment of Dr. Sean T. Bennett as Hamilton’s Vice President of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, effective August 16, 2022. Sean is currently the Vice President for Diversity and Inclusion at Salem State University. You can learn more about Sean on our website.

Sean will serve on the senior staff and will report to the president. His appointment is part of a broader effort at making Hamilton a more fully welcoming and inclusive community for all. I know Sean will welcome your active participation as we work together toward our goals.

Once again, I want to thank the members of the search committee, especially chairs Steve Wu and Maria Genao-Homs, for the many hours they spent gathering input from the community, screening applicants, and welcoming the finalists to campus earlier this month. I am also grateful to those who offered thoughts and suggestions and met with the candidates during their campus visits.

David
