Trustees announce 3-year contract for president

From the News Room

Metropolitan State College of Denver Board of Trustees Chair Adele Phelan has announced that the board and President Stephen Jordan have reached an agreement for a three-year contract with two one-year extensions.

It’s important that Jordan remain as president because “he has positioned Metro State as a voice to be heard not only in Colorado but also in the national higher education arena,” she says. “Dr. Jordan has brought a vision to Metro State, to which he has attached very specific benchmarks for which he is willing to be accountable.

Further details on the contract are not yet available, as, according to Trustee Michelle Lucero, chair of the Compensation Committee, the final terms of Jordan’s contract remain to be worked out. Lucero said that she would update the board at its June 4 meeting. Jordan’s current contract ends June 30, 2008.
