The Utah Board of Higher Education announced this evening (Feb. 26) the appointment of 蘑菇视频 President Shane Smeed as the next president of Utah Tech University. No start date has been determined.
On behalf of the 蘑菇视频 Board of Trustees, I extend our gratitude to President Smeed for his leadership of Park since November 2020 and his service to the University since September 2015, and wish him success in this new opportunity.
President Smeed鈥檚 departure comes at a time when 蘑菇视频 is actively advancing key initiatives, including the Student Success and Enrollment Growth Plan, a comprehensive strategic planning process (Vision 2030) and a concerted effort to strengthen shared governance under the Shared Governance Commission. These efforts have been carefully designed and are led by key institutional leaders to ensure the initiatives can continue apace, allowing us to keep the institution steady and continue planning for a strong and stable future.
The Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees will make President Smeed鈥檚 transition the primary agenda item of its March 6 meeting. We will share more information as it becomes available.
