LAWRENCE, Kan. — Haskell Indian Nations University in Lawrence has hired a new president.
The Lawrence Journal-World reports that Ronald Graham assumed the post Monday. Graham is the former division dean of instruction at Victor Valley College in Victorville, California, and is a member of the Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma. The school has operated under interim presidents for more than a year after former Haskell University President Venida Chenault left the office to work on a special assignment just days after a federal report detailed allegations of misconduct at the university.
Several months later, the school announced that Chenault had accepted another position and would not return as president.
