BSC's President
Dr. G. David Pollick became Birmingham-Southern College’s 12th president in July 2004 after serving since 1996 as president of Lebanon Valley College in Annville, Pa., a four-year, private
liberal arts institution also affiliated with the United Methodist Church.
In his brief tenure at Birmingham-Southern, President Pollick has initiated plans to grow the college’s enrollment from 1,400 to 1,800 over the next few years, position the college as a center for the discussion of issues surrounding human dignity, increase international study opportunities for students, add programming that will strengthen the college’s position within the framework of national liberal arts colleges and society’s needs, and broaden awareness and recognition of the college across the nation and world, among other initiatives.
The center piece of his work at Birmingham-Southern has been the establishment of the Center for Global Human Dignity. Based on the fundamental principle that advancing human dignity is central to the mission of liberal education, the center has as its mission to investigate what it means to be human and what is required to advance human dignity in the world. Central to this investigation is the exploration of what impedes opportunities for people worldwide to live in an environment that sustains an inherent sense of personal worth and social responsibility.
