Knox Student Reaction to New President
Knox College announced their choice for the new president Monday after searching for nine months.

Teresa L. Amott will bring a change to the college, and new direction to where they hope to be in the future.

Knox student Bill Schaefer explains how he feels about the new president and the college's direction.

"The college has kind of been going through a transition period with trying to keep a consistent image and what are we going to be in the future as we're coming up on the 175th Anniversary of Knox as an institution, so I think she is going to have a key part in that, what we are now, and where we are going in the future."

Schaefer says that even though he is a senior and won't see the changes Amott will bring to the college, the new president seems to be a "natural fit."
