Jan Mahoney was appointed interim president of Alexandria Technical
College on Wednesday by the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities

president by Chancellor James H. McCormick to replace former president
Larry Shellito, who became Minnesota National Guard adjutant general
Nov. 3. A presidential search is under way.
Mahoney is an accounting graduate from Alexandria Technical College
who holds a bachelor's degree in communications from the University
of Minnesota, Morris, and a master's degree in higher education
administration from St. Cloud State University. She returned to
the college in 1987 as business manager and became chief financial
officer in 1995.

state universities and community and technical colleges serving
the higher education needs of Minnesota. The system serves about
