Office of the President

Welcome to the Office of the President at Hiram College. 

It is an honor to serve this institution and the remarkable community that makes Hiram such a special place. Since its founding, Hiram College has been defined by close relationships, intellectual curiosity, and a deep commitment to helping students grow both personally and professionally. Those values continue to guide us today. 

As an alumnus of Hiram College, this institution holds a deeply personal meaning for me. I have experienced firsthand the impact that a Hiram education and community can have on a person’s life, and I remain confident in the strength of our mission and our future. 

Higher education continues to evolve rapidly, and institutions across the country are being called to adapt thoughtfully and strategically. Hiram is meeting that moment with a clear focus on long-term sustainability, responsible stewardship, and preserving the personalized educational experience that has long distinguished the College. 

I am continually inspired by the dedication of our faculty and staff, the passion and resilience of our students, and the loyalty and support of our alumni and friends. Together, we are building upon Hiram’s strong foundation while preparing the College for continued success in the years ahead. 

Thank you for your interest in Hiram College and in the work of the Office of the President. I invite you to stay connected with our community and all that is happening on our campus. 

Sincerely, 

Jim Malz 
Interim President
