Main Highlights

LIM College was founded in 1939 by retail and education expert Maxwell F. Marcuse as the Laboratory Institute of Merchandising. Retailers requested it as a school to teach women about the fashion business and merchandising.

LIM became co-ed in 1971 and Maxwell's son, Adrian G. Marcuse, became president in 1972. During his tenure, LIM College became accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education and earned authority from New York State to grant bachelor's degrees.

Former fashion executive Elizabeth S. Marcuse assumed the presidency in 2002. In 2009, the school changed its name to LIM College.

President Elizabeth S. Marcuse stepped down from her role on Dec. 31, 2023. Ron Marshall assumed the role of president at LIM College.

Most recently, President Ron Marshall assumed leadership of LIM College in January 2024, following his tenure on the Board of Directors and as a strategic consultant since 2019.

With extensive experience in retail, Marshall previously held executive roles at Nash-Finch Company, Borders Group, Inc., Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company, and Claire’s Stores Inc.
