University System of Georgia Chancellor Hank Huckaby has appointed members of the implementation committee that will work on the Kennesaw State University and Southern Polytechnic State University consolidation.
The university presidents will lead the committee, that includes 13 faculty, staff, student and administrative representatives from both schools. The committee will meet within the next two weeks and provide regular updates to both schools.
Huckaby announced the merger earlier this month. During its last meeting of the year, the state’s board of regents gave preliminary approval to the consolidation last week.
If the consolidation team’s plan is approved by the regents and an accreditation agency, the first class of students would begin at the merged institution in fall 2015.
Recommendations to the committee can be made online at both schools' websites: www.spsu.edu.; www.kennesaw.edu
