The President’s Cabinet serves as the executive leadership team to President Timothy Cecere and stewards of St. Francis College’s Mission, Strategic Vision and Values.

SFC’s leadership team is a representation of the students, faculty, staff and alumni that comprise all aspects of our Franciscan values-based learning community. We support SFC’s students to ensure the institution’s quality, integrity and sustainability. We develop strategies that adapt to changing environments, steward the College’s budget and resources, and further SFC’s Strategic Vision to prepare our students to reflect the just society in which we want to live.

Cabinet’s Leadership Principles

  • We responsibly engage and maintain a pulse on the community and its needs, working with stakeholders to, in a Franciscan way, manage difficult conversations and solve persistent problems.
  • We embody the behavior we hope to instill in the community by being effective communicators, accountable for respecting everyone’s viewpoint, and supporting the team’s collaborative ideas - even if we disagree individually.
  • We ensure strong communication and dissemination of information to each other and the campus community with an appreciation for the effective balance of confidentiality and transparency.
