Monte Hager has been named the new Assistant Dean for Administrative Services at Clermont College.

In this new position, which was left vacant by the December retirement of Robert “Mick” McLaughlin, Hager faces a challenging and diverse mixture of responsibilities.

He will oversee management of the business office and the security detail. He will oversee the different auxiliary entities, such as the bookstore and the many vendors. He will also supervise faculty issues and monitor fiscal accountability.

“This is an exciting opportunity,” Hager said. “I have always been impressed with how great an offering students have here at the college. I am very proud to be a part of a college that provides a commitment to outstanding education for the lowest possible price.”

Hager brings a diverse background in administration, business consulting, general contracting, and engineering to the college which will be valuable as he assumes his new role, said Mae Hanna, Director of College Relations.
