Just over a year ago, the Fairmont State University Board of Governors hired Dr. Mike Davis as the university’s new president, and with the 2023-24 academic year now over, he’s optimistic about Fairmont State’s future.
In the nine months since taking office as president, Dr. Davis said the community has been helpful and accommodating to him and his family. Davis said the outpouring of support has included personal invitations to people’s homes, cheat sheets on important community facts, dinner reservations. It’s a feeling of belonging that Davis has appreciated the most.
Having now lived in Fairmont for over six months, Fairmont State University President Dr. Mike Davis said he has noticed a number of areas in which the school can grow, from its academic planning to its involvement with the Marion County community.
