Dr. Steven Lloyd has been named interim provost of the University of North Georgia (UNG), until a permanent president is announced. He has served as vice provost for almost eight years, first on an interim basis and then as the successful candidate of an internal search.
“Steve has served as my right hand, leading significant academic initiatives and key academic support units, and at times wearing a dual hat to fill leadership vacancies in a variety of areas,” said Dr. Chaudron Gille, who is provost and senior vice president of Academic Affairs and was recently named interim president, replacing Dr. Mike Shannon who has accepted the presidency of the University of North Florida. “His thoughtful leadership will help us continue to build on our momentum as we serve the largest student population in our history.”
Lloyd has almost 15 years of administrative experience, having served as head of the Department of Psychological Science for seven years prior to becoming vice provost.
