MAHE Honors Toll
The Maryland Association of Higher Education has honored College President John S. Toll with its first Lifetime Achievement Award.
Toll's accomplishments during his 46 years in higher education, 33 in the state of Maryland, led to the honor. Toll began his career in Maryland education in 1953 at the University of Maryland after helping to establish the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory. He served for 13 years as chair of UM's Department Physics and Astronomy.
Under his leadership, Washington College has flourished, with no aspect of institutional life untouched by his enthusiasm. During his first five years in office, Toll has overseen many curricular enhancements and spearheaded the Campaign for Washington's College. The Campaign is raising money for academic programs, student scholarships, faculty salaries, improved facilities and endowment.
