Sacramento State Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Joseph Sheley is leaving his position to become the interim president of CSU Stanislaus, the university announced in a press release today.

Sheley, an alumnus of Sac State, began here in 1996 as dean of the College of Social Sciences and Interdisciplinary Studies.

“Joe has provided steadfast leadership of Academic Affairs during his time as Provost,” President Alexander Gonzalez wrote. “His efforts have helped us foster new cooperation across the University, and I have relied on his honest decision-making during the recent budget difficulties.”

Sheley will begin at Stanislaus on June 11. Gonzalez wrote in the release he will help to ease the transition to a new provost.
