Gene Theodori selected for AASCU's Becoming a Provost Academy
Gene Theodori, Associate Provost for Academic & Research Administration at Lamar University, was recently selected for the American Association of State Colleges and University’s Becoming a Provost Academy. He was one of 37 people selected for this year’s cohort. The program provides participants with targeted preparation in the key areas that define effective academic leadership. It is geared toward experienced deans, associate and assistant provosts, and other academic administrators, and focuses on building the capacity required to succeed as a chief academic officer. Cohort members gain a deeper understanding of institutional priorities while also strengthening their ability to lead in a rapidly changing higher education landscape. Participants engage in peer learning, share perspectives, and build lasting relationships that extend beyond the yearlong program.
