When Albert Johnson Jr. stepped into his role as Cameron University’s Vice President for University Advancement in November 2007, he was motivated in part by his commitment to giving back to the university that prepared him for a 28-year career in the U.S. Army. Almost 18 years later, Johnson is retiring from the university in early July. During his tenure, Johnson has served as a member of the university president’s cabinet with primary responsibilities focused on private fundraising, alumni relations and community engagement. In addition, he has been responsible for leadership, management and direction of the Cameron University Foundation.
