Beloit College’s Board of Trustees loses four prominent members.
The school confirmed that Diane Hendricks, Jim Packard, Chuck McQuaid and Jim Sanger all stepped down from the board.
In a statement, interim chief communications officer Elizabeth Conlisk thanked them for their service on the board and said the four “will be active in supporting” a strong relationship between the college and the City of Beloit.
Hendricks was one of the key donors in Beloit College’s $38 million Powerhouse student union project, and the school named its Center for the Sciences after Sanger.
Beloit College has been navigating declining enrollment in the lead up to the COVID-19 pandemic, facing significant financial shortfalls on campus.
The board of trustees has 21 remaining members plus two lifetime members, and Conlisk said the school is already building a list of candidates to replace the four departures.
