}}Carol Quillen is the 18th and current president of Davidson College. She is the first female president ever and the first non-alum president since John Rood Cunningham.[1]

Quillen, who grew up in New Castle, Delaware, went to the University of Chicago, where she was a student of Allan Bloom. After finishing her Ph.D at Princeton University, Quillen became a professor of history at Rice University in 1990. At Rice, Quillen eventually became a vice president, focusing on international studies.[2]

As President, Quillen has overseen major initiatives and changes at the college. The college has undergone major construction projects, namely adding a new practice facility at the Baker Sports Complex and a new science center. She also guided Davidson as it moved from the Southern Conference to the Atlantic 10 Conference as Davidson's primary athletic conference.[3] During her tenure, Davidson received its largest donation in school history from the Duke Endowment at $45 million.[4] Quillen is also leading Davidson as it conducts a $425 million capital campaign.
