At the end of each fiscal year, the Barton Community College Board of
Trustees always reviews the president’s contract. Dr. Carl Heilman was named the
fifth president at Barton in July 2006, and Trustees Chairman Mike Johnson said Heilman’s
contract will be renewed another year.
"We did do his evaluation last month," said Johnson. "I'm pleased to say that the trustees continue to be happy with the outcome and leadership of Dr. Heilman. We appreciate his efforts."
Prior to serving Barton, Heilman was Campus President for Lincoln Trail College
in Illinois. He has also previously worked in education in Arizona and Iowa.
Heilman attended college at the University of Northern Iowa and received his
doctorate from Iowa State University.
