G. Duncan Harris, CEO of CT State Capital (formerly known as Capital Community College), announced he plans to retire effective Sept. 1, 2025.
Harris has led CT State Capital since 2018, and has been working in higher education in Connecticut for three decades.
“I set a goal years ago to retire after 30 years of service to our state’s community colleges and I’ve reached that milestone,” Harris said. “It’s been an amazing and rewarding journey having joined with cherished colleagues in service to thousands of students over the years.”
Harris’s career began in 1995 at UConn’s student support services office and continued for 22 years at Manchester Community College, serving in a number of roles, including as dean of student affairs for a decade.
He stepped into the CEO role of CT State Capital seven years ago, spearheading a number of initiatives, according to the school.
He is credited with leading the school through the pandemic, securing a $4 million Title V grant, affirming Capital’s identity as a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI), and revitalizing the Capital Foundation, the school said.
He also led the Hartford campus through the consolidation of the state’s community colleges.
“Dr. Harris’s visionary leadership and unwavering commitment have been instrumental during this pivotal time of transition for CT State,” said Dr. John Maduko, CT State president. “He will be leaving a profound and lasting impact on the state of Connecticut and its educational landscape, notably in the Greater Hartford area.”
