SIUC Has A New Interim Chancellor

Brad Colwell

Southern Illinois Univeristy Carbondale has a new interim chancellor.

The Board of Trustees Thursday morning approved Brad Colwell after a recommendation from SIU President Randy Dunn.
Colwell comes to SIU-C from Bowling Green State University, where he has been the dean of the College of Education and Human Development at Bowling Green State University since 2010.

Colwell is the former associate dean of the College of Education and Human Services at SIU-C.

Colwell's appointment is effective through June 30, 2017.

He will replace Dunn, who has been serving as acting chancellor in addition to SIU system president, since the November 2014 death of Interim Chancellor Paul Sarvela. After a national search did not yield a permanent replacement, university trustees asked Dunn to identify an interim chancellor to serve for up to two years prior to a new search.
