Lori Stewart Gonzalez chosen as Ohio University's 23rd president

Posted: 3/22/2023 3:34:22 PM

The Ohio University Board of Trustees unanimously approved Lori Stewart Gonzalez as the university’s 23rd president Wednesday at Walter Hall at the Athens campus.

Gonzalez, who was at the meeting with her husband Randy, will serve as the university's first female president.

President-elect Gonzalez comes to Ohio University from the University of Louisville, where she currently serves as Executive Vice President and University Provost; additionally, she served as Interim President for more than a year during a presidential transition.

Prior to her time in Louisville, Gonzalez was the Vice Chancellor of Academic, Faculty and Student Affairs at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in Memphis. Her long career also includes serving as the Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor at Appalachian State University and Dean of the College of Health Sciences at the University of Kentucky.

I was quite impressed with her during her comments upon receiving the position. She seems like a good fit and I wish her well.

Who knows she might take one look at Peden and demand the university put $50 million into a remodel.

Agreed but someone has to coach her up on the proper enunciation of “Uhia”. O-high- O is grating to my SE Ohio ears.
