President and Leadership
Steven Rich, MBA, President
The efforts executed by Rich have allowed Fisher to be a pillar of growth at a time when surrounding schools are closing. For decades, the College has operated from a conservative fiscal philosophy. As a result, Fisher now enjoys a multi-million-dollar unrestricted endowment and an unbroken eighteen years of generating revenue surpluses at the end of each fiscal year. Fisher College is a financially strong institution; one that will be here long after our students graduate.
A HISTORY OF BUILDING FINANCIAL GROWTH AND STABILITY
Prior to joining Fisher, Rich worked as a financial controller at the Education Development Center formerly located in Newton, Massachusetts. During his leadership of the $80 million dollar international educational corporation, he established internal financial controls and developed up-to-date accounting policies and procedures to comply with both Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and federal regulations. Before his time at the Center, Rich also spent eleven years as Controller and Director of Finance at the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children in the City of Boston
EDUCATION
Rich holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting from Salem State University and a Master of Business Administration degree from Suffolk University.
