New Paltz Presidential candidate withdraws from search

03/17/2011

NEW PALTZ- "We were disappointed to learn today that one of our presidential candidates, Joe Gow, Chancellor of University of Wisconsin-LaCrosse, has withdrawn from our search. A decision on the next leader of New Paltz has not been made and was not part of the agenda for the March 22 SUNY Board of Trustees meeting. We will be in touch with the New Paltz community as soon as we have more information," announced Kenneth J. Abt, Chair, New Paltz Presidential Search Committee, and Chair, New Paltz College Council.
