I鈥檓 pleased to announce the appointment of Donald Smith as Interim Chief Human Resources
Officer, to take effect upon Beth Behner鈥檚 departure. As you know, Beth recently announced
her resignation so she could pursue some personal interests and spend more time with
family members in the Lower 48.
Donald is currently executive director of . He鈥檒l continue to do that job as well as assuming the duties and responsibilities
of the CHRO. We intend to conduct a search for a permanent replacement for the CHRO
position.
I鈥檇 also like to take this opportunity to thank Beth for her dedicated service to
the university these past 10-plus years. Many people throughout the university appreciate
Beth鈥檚 solid character, professionalism and hard work. Good luck to Beth in her future
journeys, and welcome Donald as he serves in this new interim role.
