Susan E. Henking (born 1955) is an American religious studies scholar. She was the 14th and final president of Shimer College in Chicago, appointed in July 2012, and finishing in 2017.[1][2] She then served in interim roles at Salem Academy and College, including Interim President in 2020/21.
Henking was the first female president of Shimer – a small, great books college – since its 19th-century founder, Frances Shimer, ceded control to the University of Chicago, in 1896.[1] At the time, Henking was one of the small number of openly lesbian college presidents.[3][4]
During her five years at Shimer, Henking blogged on higher education and other topics on The Huffington Post[5] and ChicagoNow.[6] She was also a contributor to Religion Dispatches, an online magazine of religion, politics, and culture.[7]
