Daniel S. Papp

(Papp, Daniel S., 1947-)

Five hundred graduates from Kennesaw State University received a salute for a “job well done” from Maj. Gen. Maria Britt on Dec. 14, 2010.  Kennesaw State University President Dr. Daniel S. Papp invited Britt to speak to the undergraduate students as well as to the graduate students from the Bagwell College of Education and the WellStar College of Health and Human Services. 
Britt was well suited to talk to the graduating Owls and their families because her oldest daughter graduated from the Bagwell College of Education just two years ago. 
She spoke to the graduates from the perspective of a life of public service. General Britt began her military career in 1983 when she graduated from West Point and has served the United States both in active duty and the National Guard.  She challenged the students to use their education, “for the good of others.  Make the world better for more than just yourself; make it better for all Americans and the world community.”  
Four days later, on Dec. 18, Britt also delivered the keynote speech at Southern Polytechnic State University's 99th commencement ceremony.

Daniel S. Papp (born 1948) is an American scholar of international affairs and policy. Papp served in a variety of professorial and administrative roles in the University System of Georgia (USG) (1973 - 2016). From 2006 to 2016, Papp served as President of Kennesaw State University (KSU), the third-largest university in the State of Georgia. During Papp's tenure, the University's enrollment increased by approximately seventy-five percent, growing from 19,854 to 33,252 undergraduate and graduate students. Under Papp, the University also significantly increased its research and graduate profile, adding a number of new academic programs (including eleven (11) doctoral degrees) and becoming classified as a Doctoral University with Moderate Research Activity. In Fall 2015, a University employee alleged the University's director of food services was engaged in fiscal misconduct, leading to an investigation by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and USG. Investigations uncovered evidence the University's business office and external foundation were not consistently following USG financial procedures and mandatory reporting of financial misconduct policy. Termination of several high-ranking University employees followed. The investigation also contended the University's external foundation prematurely disbursed approximately $577,000 Papp earned in deferred compensation. While there was no evidence Papp approved or was aware of improprieties, on May 10, 2016, Papp announced his retirement. (From Wikipedia)
