Texas Woman?s University Chancellor and President Ann Stuart announced today at the TWU Board of Regents meeting that she will be retiring.
Stuart, who has been the chancellor and president of TWU since 1999, agreed to remain in her role until a successor is named.
?Her exceptional leadership has helped TWU become a stronger and smarter university that is well prepared for the challenges of tomorrow,? Mike McCullough, chair of the TWU board of regents, said in a prepared statement Friday.
In his statement, McCullough noted that under Stuart?s leadership, enrollment has grown 85 percent and more than 20,000 students graduated.
The university has raised $220 million dollars for scholarships, facilities and faculty development during Stuart?s tenure, he wrote.
During her time at TWU, Stuart established the Ann Stuart and Ray R. Poliakoff Celebration of Science, a series to promote and celebrate science. She also established the Chancellor?s Alumni Excellence Award and the Ann Stuart and Ray R. Poliakoff Endowed Scholarships for undergraduate students.
Sue Bancroft, vice chair of the TWU Board of regents, will lead the search for a new chancellor and president, the announcement stated.
?I know the other members of the Board of Regents join me in thanking Dr. Stuart for her stellar leadership and unwavering devotion to TWU,? McCullough wrote in his statement. ?She will be a hard act to follow.?
