Chancellor Dana Thomas has named ÃÛÌÒTV athletics director Gary Gray to serve as interim vice chancellor for student services. Gray will start his new position Nov. 14. Mike Sfraga, who is retiring from ÃÛÌÒTV in December to take a position at the Wilson Center in Washington D.C. as director of the center’s polar initiative, will work for the next month closing out his ÃÛÌÒTV Arctic initiatives and will be available for consultation, as needed.

Gray will oversee ÃÛÌÒTV’s student services units, as well as continue his role as the ÃÛÌÒTV athletics director. The Dean of Students office will report to Vice Provost Alex Fitts. The ÃÛÌÒTV development and alumni offices, KUAC and University Relations will report directly to Thomas, in the interim.

The university plans to conduct a national search for a permanent replacement.
