Introducing President Ronald S. Rochon

There is something telling about a man who stops his car in the pouring rain to assist a turtle by lifting it off the road. Add to that scene the fact that he's wearing a suit and the frightened turtle tried to "spray" him, and you start to understand this is a man who knows no bounds when it comes to making a difference.

That image of "lifting" and "assisting" summarizes the essence of President Ronald S. Rochon, USI's fourth institutional leader. Spend a little time with him and you'll discover a multifaceted man with a dynamic personality and a talent for solutions, a gift for storyteller, a contagious laugh and broad smile, a vision, a big-picture perspective, eternal optimism, a life-long desire to educate and much more.
