Bliss Named Vice Chancellor Of Colorado State University System
Friday, January 3, 1997
DENVER--The State Board of Agriculture has promoted John
Bliss to vice chancellor of the Colorado State University System
in recognition of his skill as an administrator during his nearly
10-year tenure at the three-institution system.
Bliss, who has overseen administrative affairs for the
university system since 1987, will oversee all academic and
administrative affairs for the system in his new position. The
Colorado State University System, governed by the State Board of
Agriculture, is composed of Colorado State University, the
University of Southern Colorado and Fort Lewis College.
Bliss will report to Albert C. Yates, chancellor of the
Colorado State University System, and will begin his new duties
Jan. 2.
"John has done an outstanding job, and this change reflects
both his importance to the university system and his value as an
able administrator," said Romaine Pacheco, president of the State
Board of Agriculture. "We're always looking for ways to refine
and improve our efficiency and at the same time reward
outstanding performance with increased responsibility. We were
able to do both in this instance."
The State Board of Agriculture also recently named David
Clark associate vice chancellor for academic affairs. Clark,
former vice provost at Colorado State University, will report to
Bliss.
