Dr. Candice Baldwin appointed as Chief of Staff

Dear MCC Faculty, Staff and Students,

We are pleased to announce that candidate Dr. Candice Baldwin has accepted the appointment of Monroe Community College’s Chief of Staff, reporting to President Burt-Nanna, effective June 12, 2023.

Dr. Baldwin joins MCC from Frederick Community College, a public community college with 8,000 credit students and 3,500 continuing and workforce development students in Frederick, MD, serving most recently as Associate Vice President for Student Success. 

Her extensive experience in a variety of roles focused on student success, her demonstrated commitment to diversity, equity, and belonging throughout her career, and her established connections within the Rochester community well-position Dr. Baldwin to successfully take on the Chief of Staff role.  Dr. Baldwin will serve as a senior advisor to President Burt-Nanna on significant and sensitive issues and as a member of the Executive Leadership Team (ELT).  Her strategic and trustworthy leadership and ability to collaborate cross-functionally to advance the mission of the College will make her an asset in this role.

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Candice Baldwin!  You are invited to attend (virtually or in person) the MCC Board of Trustees meeting on June 12, 2023, which will be Dr. Baldwin's first day and official welcome to our MCC community.

We sincerely thank search co-chairs Mark Pastorella and Michael Bates, and the entire search committee, for their diligence, time, and commitment to completing a successful search.  Once again, the college-wide feedback collected during finalist interviews was invaluable in President Burt-Nanna’s comprehensive review and vetting of candidates.
