Point University Presidential Search
When President Dean Collins announced his plans to retire at the end of the 2024-25 academic year, the Point University Board of Trustees announced the start of a comprehensive national search for the university’s eighth president.
“As a team, we are prayerfully committed to finding the next President of Point University – someone uniquely qualified to advance our mission of educating students for Christ-centered service and leadership throughout the world,” said Amory Scott, Point trustee and chair of the Presidential Search Committee. “We are grateful to have the help of FaithSearch Partners, the preeminent executive search firm in Christian higher education. President Collins has been a dynamic and visionary leader for Point University over the last 20 years. While the search to find his replacement seems like a challenging task, we trust that the Lord will guide us and give us discernment throughout this process. We look forward to meeting who he has planned to lead Point University into the next generation!”
