LSSU TRUSTEE EMERITUS – Lake Superior State University President Peter Mitchell joins LSSU’s Board of Trustees in issuing a formal proclamation that recognizes outgoing member Doug Bovin (left, center) for eight years of service.

Bovin’s tenure saw the formal launch of LSSU’s Center for Freshwater Research and Education in 2016; the construction and 2017 dedication of R.W. Considine Hall; and, into 2018, a 136% spike in admissions to Lake State. Governor Rick Snyder has appointed Richard Barch, second from right, to an eight-year term to take Bovin’s place on the governing board. From left are trustees Ann Parker, Randy Pingatore, Thomas Bailey, Doug Bovin, Pres. Mitchell, Mark Mercer, Richard Barch, and Board Chair Rodney Nelson. (LSSU/John Shibley)
