Morna K Foy, president of the Wisconsin Technical College System, has announced her plans to retire.
The Wisconsin Technical College System consists of 16 technical colleges serving over 270,000 students across the state of Wisconsin.

“It’s been my honor and an absolute blast to lead such an amazing organization,” said Dr. Foy. “I want to thank the WTCS Board for their trust and support. I’ve had the chance to work with so many talented educators, state and local policymakers, and workforce development partners to realize the technical colleges’ promise of excellence for students, employers, and communities across Wisconsin. I am confident that my WTCS colleagues will continue this tradition of innovation for years to come.”
Dr. Foy completed her undergraduate education at the University of Wisconsin where she majored in political science and economics. She holds a master’s degree in finance and public policy from Indiana University and a Ph.D. in educational leadership policy from the University of Wisconsin.
