Almost a year to the day that Western Kentucky University President Gary Ransdell told the Board of Regents he planned to retire in 2017, the same board approved hiring his successor.
The Presidential Search Committee charged with naming WKU’s 10th President completed it’s work ahead of schedule. Dr. Gary Ransdell will remain at the helm through June 30th but after a year of searching, the person who will be handed the reigns has been identified as Dr. Timothy Caboni.
Caboni, who received a Masters Degree from WKU in 1994, says he is honored to have been chosen for the job.
Dr. Caboni signed a four year contract on Friday. He will have five months before officially taking over the office of President on July 1, 2017.
