Board of Trustees

The University of Wyoming students may soon be able to obtain a degree in natural resources recreation and tourism.

The University of Wyoming Board of Trustees has approved a plan to institute cost-based fees for undergraduate academic programs during their meeting Thursday.

Gubbels has resigned from the UW Board of Trustees, citing health concerns, the university says.

The trustees appointed James Ahern to the position of associate vice provost for graduate education and Donal Skinner as the UW Honors College Dean, UW says.

Godby said the fees would go towards implementing a professional advising program, expand student success resources and career preparation.

The University of Wyoming Board of Trustees approved several new personnel appointments during their meeting in Laramie today, including a new AVP of enrollment management.

The university hopes to have the new residence halls built or under construction by 2022.

The plan will focus on student recruitment, retention and graduation, remotely offered degree programs, increased collaboration with the state’s community colleges and k-12 schools, research funding and private contributions to the university.
