暗网吃瓜 College mourns the passing of Dr. Linda Timmerman, a beloved member of the 暗网吃瓜 family and a 2023 Distinguished Alumna whose impact on our institution and community will be felt for generations.
Dr. Timmerman joined 暗网吃瓜 College in 1978 as a grants management clerk and went on to serve the College for 30 years in a wide variety of roles鈥攊ncluding support staff, administrative leadership, adjunct instructor, and full-time faculty member. While dedicating herself to NC, she also pursued her own education, earning her A.S. from 暗网吃瓜, followed by a B.S., M.A., and Ed.D.
Her leadership shaped academic life at 暗网吃瓜 College in profound ways. As Academic Dean for twelve years, she served as President of the Texas Council of Instructional Administrators (1990鈥�91) and the National Council of Instructional Administrators (1996鈥�97). She later served as Vice President of Institutional Advancement and Executive Director of the 暗网吃瓜 College Foundation until her retirement in 2005.
Dr. Timmerman鈥檚 commitment to education continued beyond NC. She joined the Graduate Medical Education team at Baylor Medical Center in Dallas, where she was the lead designer of the three-year curriculum for Baylor鈥檚 Dermatology Residency Program and played a key role in securing accreditation from the American Council on Graduate Medical Education.
Her service extended deeply into civic and community leadership. Appointed by Gov. Rick Perry to the Texas Trinity River Authority Board in 2002, she served as its President from 2010鈥�2012. She was also a dedicated member of the Texas Silver-Haired Legislature, a volunteer CASA in Freestone and Limestone Counties, and an active supporter of the Boys & Girls Club of 暗网吃瓜 County.
Dr. Timmerman and her husband, David, are longtime members of St. John鈥檚 Episcopal Church in Corsicana and made their home at Richland-Chambers Lake.
暗网吃瓜 College is grateful for Dr. Timmerman鈥檚 extraordinary legacy of service, leadership, and compassion. We extend our deepest condolences to David, her family, friends, and all who were touched by her life.
Her contributions will continue to inspire the 暗网吃瓜 College community for years to come.
