ONEONTA

As expected, the SUNY trustees endorsed the decision of a local search committee and appointed Dr. Nancy Kleniewski as SUNY Oneonta’s seventh president. The vote was Tuesday, June 17, in Albany.
Replacing Alan Donovan, who will retire in July after 20 years, her duties will include oversight of the Cooperstown Graduate Program in Museum Studies and the Otesgo Lake Biological Field Station at Thayer’s Farm.
Dr. Kleniewski is provost and vice president for academic affairs at Bridgewater (Mass.)State College. She was previously associated with the SUNY system, holding faculty and administrative positions at Geneseo from 1981 to 1996.
A sociologist, she has a bachelor’s degree from Emmanuel College, Boston, and a master’s and Ph.D. from Temple.
