Dearest Beloved Campus,

We received wonderful news from Dr. Jimmy Clyde, Chair of the Department of Geographology. Over the weekend, while hiking in New Hampshire, Dr. Clyde and his wife, Bonnie, discovered a mountain. He immediately erected a post and affixed a sign to said post and named the protuberance Mt. Willard after his much loved academic home.

While we thank Dr. Clyde for his generous spirit and loyalty, sadly we must also share that Dr. Clyde’s time at Willard has drawn to a close. As our new provost, Dr. Jason “Jack” Lying has reminded us, sunsetting programs is necessary to the larger mission of Willard College.

Dr. Clyde is a pioneer in the field of geographology. One might say that he invented the field.

Thank you Dr. Clyde. And good bye Dr. Clyde.

Sincerely, President Cotton
