By Joseph Lyell —
One item on May 17’s board of trustees meeting agenda is the appointment of incoming president Neeli Bendapudi to professor of marketing in the college of business.
An email from Provost Dale Billingsly said “Because the Redbook does not require that the president be a faculty member, comfort and hope come from her important emphasis on her faculty role.”
Billinsgly said Bendapudi will likely not take a teaching or research role, but instead will focus on her administrative work.
