CTA Hires Executive Director

At a specially called CTA Board Meeting, June 15, 2009, directors voted unanimously to appoint Nicholas L. Whitman to the position of CTA Executive Director.  Nick, as he prefers to be called, will report for duty in Hillsborough on August 10 after completing his responsibilities as executive director for the Racine Education Association in Racine, WI. After earning his BA in History, Summa Cum Laude, at the University of Wisconsin, Green Bay, Nick went on to earn a Juris Doctorate at the University of Wisconsin Law School.  Personal interests include all things Irish/Celtic and travel, having already visited forty-six of our fifty states as well as Mexico, Aruba, Scotland, England, and Ireland. Nick is very excited about this new opportunity and is anxious to begin working with CTA members and staff.
