Jere W. Morehead, a faculty member in the Terry College of Business who has been serving as acting executive director for legal affairs, has been named associate provost and director of the Honors Program at UGA by Karen Holbrook, senior vice president for academic affairs and provost.
Morehead, one of four finalists for the position of vice president for student affairs, withdrew from that search in order to accept the Honors Program position. He succeeds Alex Rosenberg, who recently resigned as director and is returning to his faculty position in the philosophy department.
Morehead’s responsibilities will include directing the university’s prestigious Foundation Fellows program. The program, established by the trustees of the University of Georgia Foundation, is designed to attract outstanding students to the university.
In announcing Morehead’s appointment, Holbrook said the additional title of associate provost carries expanded duties and responsibilities related to the interface of the Honors Program with both undergraduate and graduate programs.
Morehead will assume his new position Aug. 1.
