The University of Wyoming’s new president, Robert Sternberg, started work today.
He says he’s looking forward to meeting educators, lawmakers, and citizens in Wyoming. And he says he has big plans for the university.
“My goal at UW is to collaborate with all stakeholders to help the University of Wyoming become the top land grant institution in the country, meaning that it will become the university that best educates and develops the ethical leaders who are going to make a positive, meaningful and enduring difference to the world,” Sternberg said.
Sternberg had been provost and senior vice president at Oklahoma State University. He says he and his wife are excited to be living in Wyoming and raising their children here.
