青涩直播SYSTEM BOARD NAMES WAINWRIGHT SOUTHEASTERN PRESIDENT
Today the Board of Supervisors for the University of 青涩直播 System voted unanimously to name Dr. William Wainwright聽the 15th president of Southeastern 青涩直播 University.聽

Together as a university, community, and region, we are poised for growth, success and excellence. Our students’ success will strengthen our communities and our economies.”
The Southeastern 青涩直播 Presidential Search Committee narrowed the field to two finalists, Dr. Sebastian van Delden and Dr.聽Wainwright, after interviewing five semifinalists on Southeastern’s campus last week.

His ability to develop and maintain deep relationships will have immediate and lasting impact.”
