ORANGE : Grafton to Manage College’s 54 Centers
Chapman College’s associate vice president, Clive L. Grafton, has been named to head the liberal arts institution’s worldwide network of learning centers, the college’s president announced.
In his new job as vice provost for Lifelong Learning at Chapman College, the 60-year-old Grafton will manage the college’s 54 academic centers in the United States, Asia and the Pacific Islands, Chapman’s President Allan E. Koenig said.
The centers provide graduate and postgraduate education in business and health administration, as well as credential programs in education.
“We will be expanding our continuing education programs, with particular emphasis in the Orange County area,” said Grafton, who joined Chapman in 1988 after 23 years at the University of Southern California.
At USC, Grafton was awarded the title of Professor Emeritus of Higher Education. In 1988, he was also named special adviser to the Seoul Olympics in recognition of his work in the field of international education.
