Godard said he was honored to be chosen as the next president for ISU, which is in Terre Haute, about 70 miles west of Indianapolis.
“Indiana State has a rich legacy of fostering a supportive and dynamic learning environment, and I am committed to further strengthening this tradition,” he said in a statement.
Godard was appointed president after a presidential search committee led the effort to select Curtis’ successor following her announcement in December that she would retire in June 2024.
