In Manning, Stevenson University has an outstanding leader

As one who had the privilege of working under Stevenson University president Kevin Manning when the school was still known as Villa Julie College, I read with interest the article "Stevenson pay gap tops for private schools, report says" ( Dec. 6).

As the school's board of trustees points out, the salaries quoted in the report are misleading. I have the highest regard for Mr. Manning, the administration and the outstanding faculty and staff of Stevenson University. If it were not for Mr. Manning, Stevenson would have gone the way of hundreds of small private colleges that have gone out of business over the last 10 years.

Under Mr. Manning's leadership, Stevenson has expanded facilities and added programs and services. This has made Stevenson students among the most sought-after graduates on the East Coast.

When local companies come to the university and say, "we'll hire all of the accounting graduates you can produce," that speaks volumes about how professional and well-prepared these young people are. I'd say President Manning is worth every penny they pay him.
