A Message from Acting Chancellor Hexter

Cody Kitaura — May 02, 2016 - 6:57pm

Dear Staff Colleagues,

I wanted to write to you today on this first Monday since I assumed the position of Acting Chancellor while Chancellor Katehi is on leave. A leadership transition of this magnitude, even a temporary one, is of course a very significant undertaking and inevitably generates many questions and concerns.

As you may have heard, President Napolitano spoke to me on Wednesday after 5 p.m. and only hours before my new assignment began. Staff in many offices sprang into action to support this sudden transition, for which I am deeply grateful.

I appreciate the kindness and encouragement of our diverse campus community. I ask for your continued support as we move our great university forward.
