Wilson-Oyelaran
Heads Kalamazoo
Eileen Wilson-Oyelaran ’69 has been named the next president of
Kalamazoo College in Michigan. Currently dean and vice president at
Salem College in Winston-Salem, NC, she will begin her duties at
Kalamazoo in July 2005.
 “Eileen is a woman of extraordinary intellect, unwavering courage of her
convictions, passionate dedication to her students and her colleagues
and undaunted optimism,” said Salem College President Julianne Still
Thrift. “She has allowed all of us to dream bigger and to trust our
capacity to achieve our greatest goals. She is a shining star!”
During Wilson-Oyelaran’s 10-year tenure, Salem strengthened its academic
component by renovating the science laboratories, creating a women in
science program, establishing the Salem College Center for Women Writers
and spurring new degrees in music and teacher education.
Wilson-Oyelaran earned her B.A. in sociology from Pomona, an M.A. and
Ph.D. in education from the Claremont Graduate University. She served as
chair of the department of education at Winston-Salem State University.
She also taught at the University of Ife (now known as Obafemi Awolowo
University) in Nigeria.
Her honors and awards include the Kent Fellowship and the Ford
Foundation National Fellowship for graduate study.
