UND Takes Steps to Find New President

A search committee is now in place to find the next president at UND.

President Robert Kelley is retiring early next year, after leading the university for nearly seven years.

The North Dakota University System committee that will search for his successor is made up of 14 people, including Board of Higher Education members, UND faculty and students, and others.

Co-chairs are UND College of Engineering and Mines Dean Hesham El-Rewini and former Board of Higher Education member Grant Shaft.
