The Inauguration of Dr. James A. Troha Twelfth President of Juniata College October 18, 2013
The Call to Think, The Courage to Evolve, The Conviction to Act
The Call to Think, The Courage to Evolve, The Conviction to Act
T
he theme that arises from the inauguration of Juniata’s 12th president, Dr. James A. Troha, is to continue the development of our students and our graduates, giving them the Initiative to Think for themselves, challenging them to have the Courage to Evolve, and, when faced with a decisive moment, finding the Conviction to Act. The theme underlines that the College must look forward in order to navigate the new paradigm in higher education while retaining the ties that connect Juniatians past and present.
As we participate in the Inauguration of Dr. Troha, we celebrate more than just a change in leadership. We celebrate the continuity of our community. The inaugural week is built around community, starting with the investiture itself, moving through gatherings of students, faculty, trustees, alumni, parents, and community members, and concluding with Homecoming and Family Weekend. Whether we are gathering to honor a new president, striding confidently through Huntingdon during a 5-K “amble� or watching the football game during Homecoming, it is the camaraderie of shared experience in the classroom or student club or game that binds us together. As Juniata moves forward into the new century, it is the communal experience that will shape who we are and what we hope to become. By celebrating that shared understanding at a time of transition, we can all work together to take Juniata to even greater heights.
Dr. James A. Troha
Twelfth President of Juniata College
R
ecognized as a multitalented administrator who has garnered experience in almost every aspect of higher education, Dr. James A. Troha became the 12th president of Juniata College June 1, 2013. In making the hiring announcement, Robert McDowell, chair of the College’s Board of Trustees, praised Dr. Troha for his focus on community and extensive executive experience, “Dr. Troha has a strong record of proven leadership in numerous aspects of leading a College, including student affairs, enrollment, and fundraising,” he said. “He is also very community-focused in his personal and professional life, and we expect that focus will benefit Juniata, Huntingdon, and the global community.” Dr. Troha came to the attention of Juniata after a successful executive career in advancement and enrollment at Heidelberg University, where he was vice president for institutional advancement and university relations, overseeing all elements of the institution’s fundraising, marketing, and university relations efforts. During his last two years at Heidelberg, Dr. Troha helped raise more than $38 million toward a $50 million campaign goal and helped secure several multimillion dollar cash gifts. In July 2008, Dr. Troha was asked to serve as Heidelberg’s interim president for a year. In that time, he oversaw several critical projects during challenging economic times, including refinancing the university’s $17 million in stateissued bonds and leading Heidelberg’s transition from college to university. Dr. Troha also has worked extensively on enrollment projects during his career. At Heidelberg, he served as vice president for enrollment from 2003 to 2007, where he helped increase enrollment by 19 percent in his first year and helped bring in the
university’s three largest freshmen classes in three decades. Dr. Troha began his academic career as area coordinator and coordinator of Greek life at the University of Evansville, in Evansville, Ind. In 1995, he was named dean of students at Harlaxton College in Grantham, England. He also was dean of students at Baker University in Baldwin City, Kan., from 1997 to 2001. A native of Chesterland, Ohio, Dr. Troha earned a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice in 1991 and went on to earn a master’s degree in 1993, both from Edinboro University. In 2005, he earned a doctorate in educational policy and leadership from the University of Kansas. Dr. Troha’s wife, Jennifer, is also an Edinboro University of Pennsylvania graduate. At Edinboro, Jennifer majored in elementary education and taught fifth grade and third grade, as well as Title I Reading. While Jim and Jennifer were in Grantham, England working at Harlaxton College, Jennifer was employed as Jim’s assistant dean of students. In 2000, she received her master’s degree in education from Baker University. The couple has three children: Madison, 14, Nicholas, 12, and Natalie, 10. The inauguration of Dr. James A. Troha as Juniata’s 12th president is the next step in Juniata’s evolution as one of the nation’s top liberal arts colleges. As the College navigates an increasingly competitive marketplace, Dr. Troha’s vision will give Juniata new vitality and new ideas as the College heads into the 21st century.
“Dr. Troha has a strong record of proven leadership in numerous aspects of leading a College. He is also very community-focused in his personal and professional life, and we expect that focus will benefit Juniata, Huntingdon, and the global community.” —Robert McDowell, Juniata College Board of Trustees Chair

Anthem The World of Our Dreams There is a day I long to see, when we will live in perfect peace; when war and strife no longer reign, and kingdoms of hatred cease; where freedom rings for every soul, and love is shown to all. Can you dream a world for our future? Can you dream within your heart? It is a world without distress, the God of peace is there; God wipes away all tearful eyes, God banishes every care; the joys within this world are full, the songs are ever new. Can this be our world in the future? If, you dream within your heart! Dream of a world, and lift your eyes to glorious visions in the skies. Oh, trust in faith and by God’s hand, we shall reach our promised land. There are times in our world, where it appears oppression rules; the hopes and dreams of burdened hearts, become as shattered jewels; the hollow pain from deep within, can nothing subdue this heartache. How long will we mourn for this world? My spirit is faint and weak as I see the faces of pain. Yet, arise my soul and stretch thy wings. Arise my soul and live the dream. The world I dream will meet the needs of every living soul; it reaches from the highest star, to the darkest depths below; within my world are days of hope, of peace, and harmony. May this dream forever live, and become reality. Dream a world within your heart.

arried today as symbols of office or authority, maces date to the Middle Ages when churchmen, forbidden to bear edged weapons, carried them into battle. In later years they were borne before kings and other officials by bodyguards, thus coming to assume the role they now play in ceremonial processions.
Maces appear primarily on old campuses in the east and are borne by distinguished faculty members who precede the president both leaving and entering the ceremony. Juniata’s mace bearer is its faculty marshal, David L. Sowell, Ph.D., Professor of History.

Beyond its traditional role, however, Juniata’s mace enjoys rich special meaning. Perhaps most special is the wood from which it is hewn: a beam from the James Creek Church of the Brethren, the home church of Juniata’s three founders— Dr. A. B., J. B., H. B. Brumbaugh. The head of the mace, further, pays tribute to three central factors in the College’s historical success—its relations with its students, the church and the community—and to the service rendered to each of those groups through the years. The head bears four medals, the largest of which is the College Seal. The smaller, representative three—each a gift from the represented group—depict Founders Hall, the Church of the Brethren’s 250th Anniversary Seal, and Huntingdon’s Standing Stone. Donors of the medals were the class of 1976, the Church of the Brethren General Board, and the Penn Central National Bank, respectively.

He thought it might be nice to include some of the Liberal Arts Symposium posters as part of Inauguration Week activities.
