Mark William Roche is the Rev. Edmund P. Joyce, C.S.C., Professor of German Language and Literature and concurrent professor of philosophy at the University of Notre Dame. From 1997 to 2008 Roche served as dean of Notre Dame's College of Arts and Letters. His books include Why Choose the Liberal Arts? (University of Notre Dame Press, 2010), which received the 2012 Frederic W. Ness Book Award from the Association of American Colleges and Universities.

"Roche offers a guide to present and future administrators by analyzing the core issues institutions face and illustrating them with personal narratives from his seventeen years of academic administration. The combination of anecdotes and scholarship provides an engaging and approachable outline for how best to define, pursue and sustain an institution's mission." —Horizons: The Journal of the College Theology Society"The book is intended to be a visionary yet highly practical manual of advice for senior academic leaders—deans, provosts, presidents—for how they might seek to lead and improve their own universities." —The Cresset"Realizing the Distinctive University is about change, improvement, and leadership in higher education. Realizing the Distinctive University is incredibly useful for anyone serving or hoping to serve as an administrator." —Planning for Higher Education Journal"For principles and strategies for moving from vision to implementation, read this book." —Commonweal"Roche's academic operator's manual delivers the following message to college administrators: Work with your faculties and other constituencies to conceive and pursue a driving vision that distinguishes your institution from peers and competitors, and steer your course with distinction." —The Chronicle of Higher Education"Roche sets his insights on two goals for successful administration of higher learning: identifying what makes a university distinctive and establishing a vision for leadership." —Catholic Library World
