New Saint Louis University President Edward Feser has taken on the role with a clear understanding of the challenges facing higher education in 2025. He recognizes the intertwined success of St. Louis and its namesake university, which is an executive-level investor in the Greater St. Louis Chamber.

Feser finds these challenges appealing, stating, “I’ve always felt like the best time to lead is when the need is high.” He emphasizes that economic development relies on "particular action by leadership in a unified, collaborative way." According to Feser, business, civic, and educational leaders must think about regional success collectively to achieve their goals.
