Dr. A. Gabriel Esteban has been named interim university president, according to broadcast e-mail and a release on the Seton Hall website Wednesday.
Esteban, the current provost of Seton Hall since August 2007, will serve a year-long term effective July 1, as announced by Kurt Borowsky, chair of the Board of Regents.
According to the release, Dr. Larry Robinson will serve as interim provost also beginning on July 1. Robinson is the current vice provost for Academic Affairs.
The Setonian spoke with both Esteban and Borowsky just hours after the announcement of the decision to the university community.
"I am honored and humbled at the confidence placed in me by the Board of Regents," Esteban said of his appointment.
