St. Clair College - Transforming Lives and Strengthening Communities
In this episode of Inspiring Community, we speak with the new President of St. Clair College, Michael Silvaggi. Michael has over 24 years of experience in the postsecondary education sector. He holds a Bachelor of Commerce (Honours Business Administration) from the University of Windsor and holds a Master of Adult Education from St. Francis Xavier University. Michael began his career at St. Clair College in November 2000 as a Clerk in the Accounts Payable Department and worked his way to the position of Vice President, Academic, and now as the 7th President of this esteemed College.
Michael is passionate about St. Clair College and the role that it plays in our community. He vigorously believes that they are charged with developing the minds and vocational competencies of their students so that they may forge a path within our society that allows for growth, sustainability and a future for generations.
Michael also strongly believes in community engagement as he feels it is their responsibility to educate, nurture and prepare students with the tools and supports necessary to ensure that they are well-positioned to continue their life journey and overcome the inevitable challenges and obstacles that lie ahead.
As a parent and an educator, Michael has supported local elementary and secondary schools through leadership and service. Michael currently serves on the Board of Governors at Assumption University and is a current member of the Windsor-Essex Catholic District School Board Parent Involvement Committee. Through these community engagements and many others, he is well-suited to offer insight about post-secondary education and for creating opportunities to collaborate and create positive results for the College and local community.
Michael truly personifies all that St. Clair College stands for, “excellence in all he does” and “transforming lives and strengthening communities”. It was our great pleasure to get to know him better and hear all about what the College is focussed on as it continues to grow.
