Committee Formed To Find Next UTU President

(St. George, UT) — A committee is preparing to find Utah Tech University’s next leader. The school announced members of the group last week, which includes Utah Tech faculty, alumni, and a co-chair of the Utah Board of Higher Education, among others. The plan is for the committee to look over applications after the deadline on January 17th and then recommend three to five applicants to the Board. A new president is expected to be announced as early as March. This comes after Richard Williams stepped down in January and has since been named in a lawsuit involving harassment.
