Drop in and join with us in the celebration and installment of George S. Bridges as the President of the College on Friday, April 22nd. The ceremony will begin at 1PM, with distinguished speakers Daniel J. Evans and Fred Goldberg.

Daniel J. Evans has demonstrated a lifelong commitment to public service, and was instrumental in the founding of The Evergreen State College. As the 16^th Governor of the State of Washington—a position he held for three terms from 1965 to 1977—Evans signed the legislation authorizing the formation of the college. Following his role as governor, Evans served as the second president of The Evergreen State College from 1977 to 1983. The Evergreen State College campus library is named in his honor.

Fred Goldberg was appointed to The Evergreen State College Board of Trustees by Gov. Jay Inslee March 20, 2013. A philanthropist, Army veteran, banker and entrepreneur, Goldberg helped found Saltchuk Resources, a global logistics company, currently the largest private company in Washington State. With deep roots in Olympia, Goldberg channels his leadership commitment to community, education, and global health issues in the area. His work for the Civil Service Commission of Olympia, Providence Saint Peter Foundation, Washington Center for the Performing Arts, The Evergreen State College Foundation, and the University of Washington Alumni association is heartfelt, extensive, and impactful.
