The Lee University Board of Directors has chosen a new president, according to a news release from the university.
Vice President Dr. Mark L. Walker was announced as Dr. Paul Conn’s successor on Friday. The announcement was made by Dennis Livingston, chairman of the university Board of Directors, following an extensive search which included faculty, alumni, community leaders, and the Church of God Executive Committee.
Conn announced late last year that he will step down on August 1.
Walker has been a Vice President at Lee since 2017.
