RALEIGH, N.C. -

The president of a North Carolina women's college has announced that she will retire from her post next summer.

Peace College President Laura Carpenter Bingham announced Monday that she will end her term as the Raleigh college's ninth president, and its first alumna president, after 12 years in office.

Under Bingham, Peace College completed its transition to, and established its identity as a four-year baccalaureate institution, grown its campus and expanded its facilities. The school also set a succession of record enrollments.

Bingham and the college's board of trustees announced her retirement a year in advance so a thorough search can be conducted for her replacement. The trustees will announce a search committee in the coming weeks.
