Dr. Zahi Atallah has been named the 11th President of Lincoln Trail College. Atallah is from Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, where he was the founder of IncludED Consultants, an educational consulting firm that works to enhance student success, increase access to students with differing abilities and backgrounds, and provides classroom student support.
“I’m very blessed and humbled to receive this opportunity,” says Atallah. “I wanted an opportunity to work in a small community in the Midwest that shares the same interest in higher education that I have.”
Atallah earned his Ph.D. in Plant Pathology from Washington State University and spent the early part of his career in higher education working in plant pathology at Washington State, the University of Wisconsin, and the University of California Davis.
