DREW VAN HORN

Young Harris

[edit]

Young Harris College inducted him as college president in 2017.[1] During 7+ years at the college, he is credited for establishing the first program to award post-baccalaureate education; a Master of Arts in teaching degree in 2019.[2] The school's accreditation from Southern Association of Colleges and Schools was reconfirmed, notably without recommendations for improvement. The college's retention rate for students improved, as did graduate placement. The school's endowment now exceeds $60 million.[1] Van Horn commented:

"I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma right after Covid, and so for a year, I was undergoing chemotherapy and still running the college.[3] Given the addition of our first grandchild along with other personal aspirations, Camille and I feel that it is time for us to enter this next phase of our lives."[4]

===Honors===(bottom) At the end of the November 18, 2024 board meeting of the commission, Chairman Van Horn notified the board that he was retiring from YHC at the end of 2024 and would also resign from the commission.[5]

Van Horn was awarded the Young Harris Medallion for seven years of "extraordinary" service to the college. The medallion is the highest honor the college bestows upon an alumnus, alumna, or friend.[6]


==Personal== John Wells (College president) Wells is married to his wife, Shannon Earle who worked at YHC in student affairs during the early 2000s when her husband was provost.[7] She is now Associate Vice Chancellor for University Advancement at the University of North Carolina at Asheville. They have two adult children, Garland and Molly.[8]
