NYIT Names Henry C. Foley as College’s Fourth President
Chemistry scholar Henry C. “Hank” Foley, interim chancellor of the University of Missouri-Columbia, will become president of New York Institute of Technology on June 1, the university announced Wednesday. Foley, 61, was selected as NYIT’s fourth president following a seven-month search by a 10-member presidential search committee.
He will succeed Edward Guiliano, who led the 10,000-student school for 16 years. Guiliano announced in September that he would step down, and Rahmat Shoureshi, the school’s provost and vice president of academic affairs, has served as interim president since late January.
