BOYLE COUNTY INDUSTRIAL FOUNDATION ELECTS
DR. CARMEN COLEMAN TO BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Danville, Kentucky—At its regular meeting on Thursday, the Boyle County Industrial Foundation elected
Dr. Carmen Coleman, Superintendent of the Danville Independent School District, to its Board of Directors
for a 3-year term. Coleman’s seat was vacated by Patti Powell, Vice President of Stuart Powell Ford-Lincoln-
Mazda, who did not seek re-election to the board for another term.
Dr. Coleman has served as Superintendent for the Danville Independent School District since 2009. She was
sought out as a potential board member to continue the tradition of strong ties that the Industrial Foundation
has had with local education. Over its 50-year history, BCIF has had multiple education leaders serve on its
board, including Dr. Pam Rogers, formerly Superintendent of the Boyle County School District; Bob
Rowland, formerly Superintendent of Danville Independent School District; and Dr. Michael F. Adams,
formerly President of Centre College. Dr. John Roush, the current President of Centre College, also serves
on the Industrial Foundation board.
Upon her election, Dr. Coleman remarked: “It is truly an honor to serve as a member of Board of Directors
for the Industrial Foundation. The opportunity to work closely with others whose mission is to ensure that
our very special community continues to thrive and grow is just really exciting.”
BCIF Chairman John Albright commented: “Dr. Coleman is an excellent addition to our board. She
represents one of our top-performing local school districts, and will bring a strong educational perspective to
our business development efforts.”
