About Us

Thomas College is a close-knit community united by a desire to experience the beauty of our natural surroundings and a vision for how we become the neighbors, employees, entrepreneurs, and leaders of tomorrow.

Founded in 1894 along the idyllic banks of the Kennebec River in Waterville, Maine, Thomas College is a friendly, welcoming family. Here, education is more intimate, experiences are more personal, and everyone knows you by name.

The Human Resources department mission is to enhance Thomas College’s community by attracting, retaining, and supporting a quality workforce in its effort to provide an excellent educational program for our students. We provide leadership and guidance in the development, implementation, and equitable administration of policies and procedures, thus fostering a positive work environment.

We aim to conduct our Human Resource functions with guidance from all Federal, State, and local laws pertaining to personnel and affirmative action and with industry associations like the College and University Professional Association for Human Resources (CUPA-HR) and the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM).
