Torre Meringolo

On the heels of the successful Mary Washington First campaign, Salvatore “Torre” Meringolo announced his retirement as vice president for advancement and university relations as of Oct. 1. Meringolo oversaw the $50 million campaign, which exceeded its goal by $1.5 million.

Before coming to UMW in 2009, Meringolo was vice president for development at St. Mary’s College of Maryland. While associate dean of the university libraries at The Pennsylvania State University, Meringolo became actively involved in fundraising on behalf of the university libraries.

UMW President Troy Paino has announced a national search for Meringolo’s successor.
