In her eleven years as a Vice President and Dean of Students at a highly selective liberal arts institution, Sherra H. Babcock, founder and principal of Project Partnerships, occasionally thought about how nice it would be to clone herself so that she could be in two places at once (particularly when one of those places would allow more direct contact with students and other constituents). Knowing the importance of trusted and experienced colleagues, it occurred to her that the occasional “extra” senior colleague who could listen confidentially and make achieving institutional goals a little easier, more timely, and more fun might be a great small business niche.

It is for this reason that she founded Project Partnerships. Project Partnerships is designed to give hands-on assistance to liberal arts and sciences institutions.

We specialize in student affairs transition and leadership. We review and advise student affairs departments, help with search, fill interim positions, help you initiate that project you've planned to start, provide research for that important presentation, coach an employee, or help staff develop new programs.

We listen to your needs and focus on your project. We determine a possible direction together and apply practical energy and a concentration we call “total immersion” to help you accomplish your goals.
