Michael P. Pell of West Union has been appointed by Ohio Gov. John Kasich to the Southern State Community College Board of Trustees for a term beginning July 27, 2012, and ending May 11, 2018.

Pell is president and CEO of First State Bank.

"I'm happy to welcome Mike Pell to the Southern State Community College Board of Trustees," said board chair Dr. Vicki Wilson.

"Mike's financial expertise will be a great asset to us as we move forward with our proposed expansion."

"We welcome Mr. Pell to the Southern State Board of Trustees," said Dr. Kevin Boys, SSCC president. "Mike is a respected leader and businessman in southern Ohio. It will be helpful to have a person of his background and integrity on the board, especially as we plan for a new campus in Adams County."

A graduate of West Union High School, Mr. Pell earned his bachelor's degree in business administration and management from Morehead State University. He has worked in the banking industry since 1983, most recently as president and CEO of First State Bank in Winchester. Pell is a member of the Ohio Bankers League, Leadership Adams and the Ohio BAHEE (Business Alliance for Higher Education and the Economy), a subcommittee of the Ohio Business Roundtable.

"I look forward to the opportunity to serve on the Board of Trustees," said Pell. "Southern State Community College has a clear vision and mission for their students. We can work together to provide an accessible, affordable and high quality education in all our markets in southern Ohio."

Mr. Pell resides in West Union with his wife, Monica, and five children: Robert, Haylee, Jacob, Derrick and Dakota.

Pell joins Brown County resident Paul Hall, who was re-appointed to the SSCC Board of Trustees by Kasich last week, as well as board members: chairperson Vicki Wilson of Clinton County, vice-chair Donald Moore of Fayette County, Doug Boedeker of Fayette County, Michelle Cimis of Highland County, Larry D. Anderson of Adams County, and Leilani Popp of Clinton County.
