Divine Word College - Administration

Administration

The President

Michael Hutchins, SVD

"Divine Word College has changed dramatically since my own student days in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The most obvious change is in the ethnic composition of our student body. Once a largely Anglo American population with a significant African American minority, we are today a largely Vietnamese American population with strong international representation."
