THIBODAUX, La. — ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ today announced changes to its administration and plans to begin a national search for a new Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs.<\/p>\n
Dr. Lynn Gillette will move from his current position as Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs to the role of special assistant to ÐÓ°É´«Ã½ President, Dr. Jay Clune. Dr. Sue Westbrook, dean of the College of Nursing and Allied Health, will serve as interim provost and vice president for academic affairs.<\/p>\n
\u201cDr. Gillette’s leadership brought innovative change to increase student retention and improve teaching and advising practices. I look forward to working closely with him to continue that positive momentum moving forward,\u201d Dr. Clune said. \u201cDr. Westbrook is a well-respected leader who oversees some of our largest and most successful programs. Under her watch, our nursing graduates regularly pass the national licensure exam at rates greater than both the national and state average, and have a 100 percent employment rate after graduation.\u201d<\/p>\n
