ABERDEEN, S.D. (AP) - The South Dakota Board of Regents plans to meet in Aberdeen Thursday to appoint a new president of Northern State University.
The school named three finalists last week.
They are Jacksonville University College of Business Dean Don Capener, Niagara University Provost Timothy Downs and University of Wisconsin-La Crosse Chancellor Joe Gow. They’ve been on campus this week for meetings with regents and others.
Whoever gets the job will succeed James Smith, who is leaving after seven years to become president of Eastern Michigan University.
The announcement is planned for 3:30 p.m. CDT in the Centennial Rooms of the NSU Student Center.
