In Office
A legal scholar who began her academic career on this campus, Barbara R. Snyder became president of Case Western Reserve University on July 1, 2007. In her first two years in office, Case Western Reserve eliminated a multi-million-dollar deficit three years ahead of schedule, set new fundraising records and completed its first strategic plan in more than a decade.Â

Snyder's Second
Provost and Executive Vice President W. A. "Bud" Baeslack III heads the implementation of Case Western Reserve's academic strategic plan. Since starting as Snyder's second in 2008, he has led the university to recruit the highest quality and most national undergraduate class in its history and guided a research and technology transfer enterprise that is setting records for licensing revenues.

Senior Leadership
Case Western Reserve University's Board of Trustees also is representative of the university community as a whole—four out of every five members are alumni—and several deans and administrators have served at Case Western Reserve in previous positions. Members of senior leadership are among the best and brightest in education administration—as well as award-winning advisers, mentors, scholars and teachers.
