Russell K. Hotzler, who served as the president of New York City College of Technology (City Tech) for over 22 years, is resigning effective July 13. His tenure, beginning in 2004, is marked by substantial developments in curriculum and faculty growth, transforming City Tech into a notable institution for STEM education. CUNY Chancellor Felix V. Matos Rodriguez noted Hotzler's dedication to student-centered success throughout his leadership, which has spanned 55 years at CUNY, including roles as dean and vice chancellor. Hotzler reflects on his presidency as a time of significant transformation for the college.
Hotzler became the president of the New York City College of Technology in 2004 and has worked tirelessly for nearly 22 years to build the college into a national example of student-centered success.
Hotzler has transformed City Tech into a beacon of STEM education for New York City. Throughout his tenure, President Hotzler oversaw the steady evolution of the college's curriculum, increased the size of its full-time faculty and sustained the growth of its student and faculty research.
When I joined CUNY's faculty some 25 years ago, people were calling President Hotzler the university's 'Mr. Fix-it' for his success in the administration and his back-to-back stints as interim president.
Hotzler described his time as president as a period of significant transformation and growth that has allowed the college to evolve into a truly unique and valued institution.
