college presidents
University chief executives
College presidents are the chief executive officers of colleges and universities, responsible for institutional leadership, fundraising, and public representation.
They navigate between faculty, students, trustees, and donors—often with competing interests.

In American higher education, presidents typically report to a board of trustees or regents.
