Gonzalez has served as K\u2019s president since July 2016 and has been a fierce advocate of the liberal arts. He previously served Occidental College as its vice president for academic affairs and dean from 2010\u20132016. Before working at Occidental, Gonzalez was an economics faculty member at Trinity University for 21 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gonzalez served as the president of the International Trade and Finance Association in 2014. He is the president of the Board of the F.W. and Elsie L. Heyl Science Scholarship Fund and serves on the boards of the Annapolis Group, Michigan Independent Colleges and Universities, Michigan Colleges Alliance, Bronson Healthcare Group, Kalamazoo Community Foundation and the W.E.

\u201cI deeply appreciate Jorge’s service to the ACE Board of Directors and dedication to helping ACE carry out our mission to mobilize American higher education for the good of our students and communities,\u201d ACE President Ted Mitchell said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
