The University of the Arts has a new president: Sean T. Buffington, associate provost for arts and culture and director of cultural programs at Harvard University since 2005.
Buffington worked at Harvard for 13 years, as assistant director of the alumni association; in the development office, with responsibility for strategic planning and fundraising for several new cross-disciplinary programs; as assistant provost for Interfaculty Programs; and deputy chief-of-staff to the president and provost.
That's a lot of titles for a guy who is just 38 years old.
Buffington, who reports to work at Broad and Pine August 15, follows Miguel Angel Corzo, who held the post for seven years.
