Academic Career & Executive Search Congratulates Hartwick College on Director of the Griffiths Center for Collaboration & Innovation (GCCI)

(Oct. 5, 2020) Academic Career & Executive Search (ACES) proudly announces the completion of their search for Director of the Griffiths Center for Collaboration & Innovation at Hartwick College in Oneonta, New York. Hartwick College welcomed Dr. Patricia Delaney to the role in August 2020.

Hartwick College strives to offer the same academic rigor, quality of education, and career opportunities of an ivy league university or elite liberal arts college in the United States without the competitiveness or admission criteria. Launched in 2018, the GCCI is an idea incubator, an instigator of innovative approaches, and a space for creative problem solving. The GCCI serves as an umbrella for three Innovation Stations: the Makerspace, Fabrication Lab (Fab Lab), and Entrepreneurship Hub (E-Hub), where ideas, theory, and practice support entrepreneurial models of thought and action across the curriculum.

“Hartwick College President Margaret L. Drugovich was looking for someone truly unique to advance a culture of collaboration, innovation, and entrepreneurship as the inaugural director of the GCCI,” states Jennifer Muller, Managing Partner at ACES. “Someone to inspire creative thinking, support collaborative learning, and model the key outcomes reflected in Hartwick College’s mission statement. All of this and more was found in Dr. Delaney’s extensive experience as a design and system thinker. We wish Hartwick and Dr. Delaney all the best on this exciting new chapter together.”
