Board of Trustees

JOHNSON CITY – (March 20, 2017) The newly appointed Board of Trustees for East Tennessee State University will convene its inaugural meeting Friday, March 24, at 1 p.m. in the East Tennessee Room on the third floor of the D.P. Culp University Center.

The meeting is open to the public and will also be livestreamed at https://www.etsu.edu/trustees/livestream.php.

Immediately following the meeting, ETSU President Dr. Brian Noland and the board chairman, who will be elected that day, will be available to speak with members of the news media regarding the day’s events.

Members of the Board of Trustees were announced in October 2016 following Governor Bill Haslam’s signing of the FOCUS Act, which created institutional governing boards for the six universities that were governed by the Tennessee Board of Regents.  The members of the ETSU Board of Trustees are Janet Ayers, Steven DeCarlo, David Golden, Dorothy Grisham, Dr. Linda Latimer, Scott Niswonger, Jim Powell and Ron Ramsey.  Dr. Fred Alsop was elected as the faculty representative to the board, and a student representative will be appointed at that first meeting.  Dr. David Linville is the Secretary of the Board of Trustees.
