Pat Sajak joined the board of Hillsdale College in 2003, where he served as the vice president of the committee. He later became the chairman of the conservative Michigan institute in 2019 after his predecessor William Brodbeck retired. Now with his hosting days behind him, the TV personality can focus on his leadership duties.

"Hillsdale College is fortunate to have an even closer relationship with Mr. Sajak," the Executive Director of Media Relations and Communication for Hillsdale, Emily Slack, told The New York Post. "Since 2019, we have benefitted from his wisdom, intellect, and good humor as chairman of Hillsdale's board of trustees." While Sajak continues the legacy of leadership in Michigan, he is also serving at the "Wheel."

"Pat has agreed to continue as a consultant on the show for three years following his last year hosting," Suzanne Prete, the EVP of Game Shows at Sony Pictures Television, said in a statement to People. "So we're thrilled to have him remaining close to the 'Wheel of Fortune' family!" Fortunately, the Sajak touch will still be there. He will be much help as Ryan Seacrest fills the coveted spot.
