March 1, 2016. Victoria \u2013 The Royal Roads University Board of Governors is pleased to announce an 18-month extension to Dr. Allan Cahoon\u2019s second term as President and Vice-Chancellor.<\/p>\n
Royal Roads Chancellor and Board of Governors Chair Wayne Strandlund says the extension of Cahoon\u2019s term provides an opportunity for successful transitions and succession planning with the arrival of new board members in the coming year.<\/p>\n
\u201cNewly appointed board members will benefit greatly from Allan\u2019s deep institutional knowledge and vision,\u201d says Strandlund. \u201cI am excited to continue working with him as Royal Roads continues to meet the labour market needs of this province and country, while changing the lives of its students by building leadership capacity.\u201d<\/p>\n
Effective July 1, 2017, Cahoon\u2019s extension will also offer leadership stability and consistency as Royal Roads embarks on a new five-year operations plan. Cahoon will continue to focus on his priorities of promoting Royal Roads\u2019 demand-driven program offerings, as well as advocating for the construction of a new building on campus to meet its student growth projections. The extension will also allow him to complete his term as president of the Inter-American Organization for Higher Education.<\/p>\n
Originally appointed in 2007, Cahoon was re-appointed in 2012 for a second five-year term. At the conclusion of his extended term in December 2018, Cahoon will have been the longest serving president in the Research Universities\u2019 Council of B.C. with almost 12 years at the helm of Royal Roads.<\/p>\n
