Today we welcomed Holy Cross College President Marco Clark.
He talked about the tri-campus community and the role Holy Cross has in the tri-campus and Michiana communities and how the College prepares its students to be a force for good in this world.
Marco Clark, Ed.D. has been the President of Holy Cross College at Notre Dame, Indiana since July 1, 2022. Dr. Clark is the first president of the College who is not a Holy Cross brother or priest. Dr. Clark comes to Holy Cross College from St. Edward’s University, sponsored by the Brothers of Holy Cross, Moreau Province, located in Austin, Texas and has worked for over thirty years as a Catholic educator and leader in higher education and secondary schools sponsored by the Congregation of Holy Cross. He succeeded Rev. David T. Tyson, C.S.C., who retired.
Dr. Clark holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the College of the Holy Cross, Massachusetts, a Master’s in Education in Guidance and Counseling from Bowie State University, Maryland, and a Doctorate in Education in Interdisciplinary Leadership from Creighton University, Nebraska. He has spent the entirety of his 33+-year career as a Catholic educator, 25 of those years serving alongside the Brothers of Holy Cross.
He and his wife Peggy, a Catholic school math teacher, have three grown children and five grandchildren. As a former Division I student-athlete (Football) and coach, Marco is also an avid sports fan. He loves to bike, kayak, hike, spend time with his family, travel, relax on the beach, and play golf.
