Dale Billingsley may be an Oklahoma native, but the English professor-turned-acting vice president and provost is a Louisvillian through and through.

Billingsley was named interim vice president and provost by acting president Neville Pinto after former President James Ramsey resigned,.

The English professor has big shoes to fill, mounting oversight for undergraduate, graduate and professional education- encompassing hundreds of degrees and programs. He is also tasked with overseeing the 21st Century Initiative plan, which aims to make U of L a premier metropolitan university by 2020.
