Five of Utah’s colleges are currently led by women — an already historic number that could grow by one more this year as Weber State University narrows down its search for a new president.
The Ogden school released its list of four finalists for the position Friday. It includes two women — Melody Rose and Katherine P. Frank — and two men — Frank R. Lamas and Brad L. Mortensen.
The new president, whom the university expects to select by Dec. 6, will replace Charles Wight after he stepped down from the post in June after five years at the helm of Weber State.
