Quotation from Edward A.
Amore, father of President Ann M. Amore, Ph.D.:
“This is a moment of great pride,” said Edward
A. Amore, the President’s father, when asked how
he felt about his daughter’s upcoming
Inauguration. “I’ve always known that Ann’s
dedicated and sincere efforts for success would
bring about great things … I couldn’t be more
proud of what she has accomplished in the past
and I would be remiss if I didn’t mention how
very proud and happy her mother would be, if she
were here today. I look forward to the joy Ann
will bring to me and to those around her in the
years to come.”
Quotation from Edmund J. Dobbin, O.S.A.,
President, Villanova University:
Delighted to be able to bring greetings to
Rosemont’s new president at the Inaugural
ceremony, Edmund J. Dobbin, O.S.A., President of
Villanova University, extends his well-wishes:
“Ann Amore comes to Rosemont with obvious
energy, savoir faire, and devotion to Rosemont’s
core values. Rosemont is in very good hands. The
College also has Catholic institutions,
including her next door neighbor, who are
anxious to work collaboratively with her in
these exciting years ahead.”
Quotation from Jacqueline Murphy, Ph.D.,
Associate Professor, English, Theatre, and
Classics, Undergraduate Women’s College and
School of Graduate Studies:
“For some reason of fate or chance, I ended up
on what turned out to be the most fabulous
search committee one can imagine. And I
specifically remember the day at the airport
motel when we first met Dr. Ann Amore. After she
left the interview, we all looked at each other
and just knew,” remarks Jacqueline Murphy,
Ph.D., Associate Professor, English, Theatre,
and Classics, Undergraduate Women’s College and
School of Graduate Studies. “Already Ann has
given the College a tangible hope—a vision for
the future. Rosemont is a good place to be—even
better because Ann is here.”
Quotation from Michael Dawkins ’02, Student,
School of Continuing Studies:
“I am very proud to be associated with an
institution that gives its students a
competitive advantage—a value-based and valued
education,” states Michael Dawkins ’02, a
student enrolled in Rosemont’s School of
Continuing Studies. “As today marks an Inaugural
celebration for President Amore, I am confident
that she will continue the steadfast mission of
the College.”
Quotation from Kate Noonan ’02, Student,
Undergraduate Women’s College:
Kate Noonan ’02, President of the Student
Government Association, Undergraduate Women’s
College, reflects on President Amore’s formal
installation: “Although the Inauguration makes
everything official for both President Amore and
our institution, our new president has already
been a part of our College family in so many
ways. She has been a confidant, one who gives us
advice and direction, but at the same time,
someone who challenges us, someone who is always
‘in the know’ about the students. President
Amore is the type of person you feel comfortable
cheering with on the sidelines of a sports game
or grabbing a bite to eat with at the “T” (the
College’s informal dining hall). She has been
active in so many of our lives.”
Quotation from Kathy Parkinson ’86, President
of the Alumnae/i Association:
Vowing alumnae/i support of Rosemont College’s
new president, Kathy Parkinson ’86, President of
the Alumnae/i Association, says, “Dr. Amore does
not walk alone in her efforts at the College.
The alumnae/i are with her in every step she
takes. Our support is an unwavering commitment
to a continuance of the mission of our College’s
foundress, Cornelia Connelly.”
