Congratulations, Dr. Robin Holmes-Sullivan on your historic role as president of Lewis & Clark. We wish you continued excitement, excellence, and creative leadership. We send our blessings.
From one bball player to another: you made all the stuff they told us about being on the team come true: you are successful and have done great things and will continue to do more. Go team.
I remember first hearing you speak at a Student Life meeting in Fall ’21 and thinking, “Wow, this person is inspiring!” Now we welcome you as the president of L&C—I couldn’t image a better leader, and I am excited for the future of our beautiful campus. Best wishes to you!
I’m looking forward to L&C’s future with you at the helm. Congratulations!
I so enjoyed our recent chat and am more than ever firmly convinced that Lewis & Clark has made a splendid choice in its new leader. I look forward to watching the great strides that you most assuredly will make in moving the college to new heights.

It was so nice to meet you recently, and we look forward to your inauguration and working with you in the future.
Congratulations, President Holmes-Sullivan! You’ve said before that you’re used to being “the first.” Throughout your career, you have paved new paths and by doing so, inspired others to do the same. Representation matters and I’m beyond thrilled to embark on one of these “firsts” under your leadership!
Congratulations and thank you for leading us. It has been inspiring to work with you so far and such fun to visit with you and Kathy at the Cooley House. Can’t wait to see what you have in store for our community.
Congratulations, Robin, on the start of one incredible journey that will undoubtedly lead L&C to a brighter future. I cannot adequately express my excitement and confidence in you at the helm. It’s truly an honor to be part of this team and community.
Robin, so excited to continue to have you as our leader!
Congratulations, Robin! I am so thrilled LC has such a competent woman in the driver’s seat. I appreciate your leadership on Indigenous Peoples’ Day and all days! I’m looking forward to working with you.
I am thrilled to see Robin Holmes-Sullivan take the role of President. She is an asset to our community and I very much am looking forward to her new energy. We are lucky to have her and the future seems bright. All good wishes and I look forward to supporting Holmes-Sullivan in my own small ways through my work at the law school.
I want to congratulate you on your appointment, and wish you the best in this challenging position. We faculty look forward to working with you to make L&C an amazing place!
Congratulations, President Holmes-Sullivan! As an alumnus, I’m incredibly proud of L&C for naming you president. You are an inspirational leader and the perfect person to take L&C to the next level. As a staff member, I am SO honored to be working for the institution under your leadership. I’m eager and excited to help you enact your vision for the future of L&C. Congratulations!
I appreciate very much you taking on such a mammoth responsibility and wish you well as you help guide the college into what could continue to be turbulent times in our country. Lewis & Clark made me. If it weren’t for the college with its able faculty and the overseas stay in Peru (65-66) I would have missed out becoming a different person not to my liking.
Such a pleasure to meet you in Rancho Mirage earlier this year.
I admire the way that I have observed you approaching problems: first by listening, then by gathering community, and then via ambitious imagination. I am looking forward to working at this institution alongside you and everyone else here.
Lewis & Clark College is very lucky to have you at the helm.
Very Best Regards,
Dr. Holmes-Sullivan, I remember you over 20 years ago when I was an undergrad at the University of Oregon. Your presence and leadership at UO were so important to me and so many other students. I was thrilled when our president asked me to represent UWS at the ceremony. My face lit up when I saw your face on the invitation. “I know her! Of course, I will attend,” I said. Looking forward to seeing your light shine as you take this next step in your career. I will be rooting for you at this event and beyond!
Dear Robin, We remember you from U of O. Wim is a hard act to follow, and it seems you are very much up to the task!
L&C is the second best thing that ever happened to me.
I could not be more proud of Lewis & Clark for its decision to select you as president. I cannot imagine a better choice. You have demonstrated that you are indeed the best person for the work ahead. Congratulations, President Holmes-Sullivan! I look forward to watching you take the institution to heights never before possible.
Congratulations, President Holmes-Sullivan! I could not be more excited for you and for the future of L&C. Thank you for leading us so well!
Congratulations on this momentous occasion, President Holmes-Sullivan! I am so excited to see all that you accomplish as our leader. Enjoy this time of celebration, you deserve it!
L&C is extremely lucky to have had the type of leadership and compassion in our Student Life office. It is exciting and refreshing to know that this same level of expertise will be carried over to the presidency. We are proud to have you as our 26th president.

Thank you for your commitment to leading the Lewis & Clark community forward!
My heartiest congratulations to you, Dr. Holmes-Sullivan. The college’s selection of you as its new president is the best two-way street I’ve ever known. Your new role will allow you to spread your wings in a new way, and the college will be the beneficiary of your skills and leadership. Win-win, as I see it. The Warren Family has a long history with Lewis & Clark, including my late husband, Ray Warren ’65, and several of his siblings. We are all thrilled to honor you as the college’s new president, and stand ready to support you in your efforts in any way we can. Our best to you!
I am greatly encouraged that you will advance an agenda of unity, guide our upcoming graduates to successful, productive lives, and offer the strength of leadership to support the faculty and staff of an institution I very much admire. Welcome to the new challenges!
Dr. Holmes-Sullivan, I am sure we know each other from the University of Oregon! I am thrilled that you are leading Lewis & Clark into a new era where we need to work even harder to deepen justice in this country and build multicultural, inclusive democracy. We need leaders like yourself who have the credentials: lived academic and personal experiences to do just that. We also need greater inclusion and representation at institutions such as Lewis & Clark College. Thank you for accepting the position. I look forward to congratulating you in person.
I am so grateful that the L&C community has you as our new president... The future looks bright! Congratulations, President Holmes-Sullivan!!!
I am Aunt Sug’s daughter, and I hope to see you at your inauguration on October 21, 2022! I live in the Gresham area. My husband, Robert Browning, graduated from Lewis & Clark Law School. Hope continued success for you and your family!
Dear Robin, Thank you for always being an inspiration around campus. Even though you are the President, it doesn’t take away from your approachability and I’m entirely grateful for that. You are a role model to so many, a face of progress at Lewis & Clark!
I look forward to your leadership as you work to realize your vision for the institution!
Kathryn and I give a huge “Cheers” to you and to Lewis & Clark. Our best wishes for a long and successful presidency.
