ISU Announces New President

Bernard Zach — Fri, 10 May 2013 17:57:59 +0000

In an early press conference Friday morning, Illinois State University announced Dr. Timothy Flanagan as their new president.

Flanagan comes from Framingham State University in Massachusetts, where he served as president since 2006. He also served as a Provost at State University of New York College of Brockport between 1998 and 2006. The Board of Trustees selected him over 40 other candidates. Student Trustee Aaron Von Qualen attributes part of this decision to the fact that Flanagan is a “student’s president.”

Among his goals, Flanagan wishes to sustain the University’s prestige in the state while also helping it grow the way President Al Bowman has over his tenure in the position. He also wants to be active with students and bring faculty members closer with them.

Flanagan will begin his service as ISU’s president on August 15. President Al Bowman will officially step down from the position on May 15.

Anderson Sarah — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 23:06:25 +0000

Power has been restored to campus after the town of Normal was experiencing some power outage issues. The Ameren substation located near Metcalf and Schroeder Hall on the campus of Illinois State University had a piece of equipment break down at around 4pm yesterday. Crews were working to figure out which piece of equipment needed repair. Numerous Buildings around Normal were affected including University High School, Metcalf School, Fairchild Hall, Rachael Cooper, ISU Campus Recreation Center, Turner Hall, the Agriculture Building, Kaufman Stadium, the Nelson Smith Building, Horton Field House, Tri-Towers, and the Linkins Dining Center at Tri-Towers. Power was restored around 6pm last night and all operations on campus have resumed as scheduled.
