Alan Rieck

"I know Alan from serving with him, and others, in an international non-profit organization. I've witnessed Alan take on multiple leadership roles and he's done nothing but prove himself Consistent, Reliable and Proactive in every role.

Beyond that Alan is clearly bright -- and "quick" bright too. And, Alans is as kind and warm as anyone I know.

I "only" score Alan a "9" because I figure many folks (me included) wouldn't trust ANYONE giving someone a "10"."

"Dr. Alan Rieck models the character, professionalism, and expertise of a first rate educator and administrator. As a professor of music education, he challenged me and my fellow students to aspire to the highest professional standards and measures of achievement for the betterment of those we served. As a department chair, Dr. Rieck advocated tirelessly for his department, his faculty, and his students. He successfully balanced the current and future demands of the program and boldly navigated the department through difficult transitions that ensured positive long-term outcomes. As a university level administrator Dr. Rieck demonstrated a commitment to advancing research and quality instruction beyond the walls of his institution. He invested himself fully to the development of others, including advising former students on their ongoing academic and career development. In addition to his excellence as an educator and administrator, Dr. Rieck models personal character, family values, and a perpetual desire for self-improvement that reflects high credit upon himself and any institution honored to have him in its employ. I unequivocally offer my highest recommendation of Dr. Alan Rieck for any position to which he aspires.
