New Coe VP Promotes Two-Track Education Plan
Jack Laugen, named vice-president for development at Coe College, advocates a two-track public-private higher education system. A St Olaf and Minnesota alumnus with extensive St Olaf, Northwestern and Olympic PR experience, he aims to boost alumni support and broaden funding. Laugen, 41, seeks closer parental involvement and state tuition grants to sustain small private colleges. He also covers Coe football for The Gazette and enjoys skiing and classical music, with his wife Linda expecting a child. The couple recently moved to Cedar Rapids.
