Southern College of Optometry is governed by a Board of Trustees, with day-to-day responsibilities executed by the college's president and management team.
Since SCO’s founding in 1932, the college has benefited from outstanding leadership that includes only seven presidents in our history. From our President’s Council, to a leadership team of directors and other managers, to our Board of Trustees, SCO looks for leaders who will work side by side with employees to meet the college mission of leading the profession.
