(OLNEY) It was earlier this week that the Illinois Eastern Community Colleges District accepted the intent to retire notice from Dr. Matt Fowler, President of Wabash Valley College and IECC Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs, which will be effective on June 30th, of next year, 2027. Dr. Fowler’s career with IECC spans more than 25 years, beginning in 1999 as a faculty member, and followed by a variety of roles within the District and at Wabash Valley College in Mt. Carmel. As part of the transition, IECC has named Cassandra Goldman, current Dean of Students, as Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs and President-Designate for Wabash Valley College, as she will begin working alongside Dr. Fowler on July 1st, 2026 in the new role, providing a unique opportunity for continuity in leadership and a deliberate, hands-on transition.
