UH SYSTEM BOARD OF REGENTS CONFIRMS GOGUE AS NEXT CHANCELLOR, PRESIDENT

With the University of Houston System Board of Regents approving his appointment as the next UH System chancellor and UH president today, Gogue will “hit the ground listening,” a promise he made when announced as the finalist for the post in July.

Gogue (rhymes with “rouge”) will have about a month to hear what’s on the minds of students, faculty and staff: his first official day as chancellor/president is Sept. 2. Current UH System chancellor and UH president Arthur K. Smith will retire effective Sept. 1, completing six and a half years spent leading the nation’s most diverse urban research university.
