Paul Conco, president of Paul D. Camp Community College, has announced his intention to retire, effective June 30.

“After much thought and deliberation I find it’s now time to submit my intention to retire this summer,” Conco said. “I have been blessed to have had the opportunity to work with an excellent faculty and staff who are talented, skilled and dedicated to our PDCCC mission of ‘enhancing the quality of life for students and the community.’ They work hard every day to support students and the opportunity education provides.”

“These past 5 years have been fast, furious and fruitful,” he added. “The many endeavors the PDCCC team have accomplished are something to be very proud of. I appreciate the excellent support and leadership of this board and the support of our Foundation Board. Together, much has been done. I remain committed to Paul D. Camp Community College and will assist in a smooth transition as we enter into the VCCS’ next strategic plan.”

A national search process will begin through the Human Resources department of Virginia’s Community College system office in Richmond.
