Welcome to episode 116 of the Extra Credit podcast.

Last week, the State Board of Education voted to start its search for a new Boise State University president over, rather than hire one of three finalists identified following a nationwide search. We’ll explain what happens next in the final days before outgoing President Bob Kustra retires and leaves campus.

Be sure to check back next week for another new episode of Extra Credit, where we will explore the new University of Idaho president’s search and explain the stakes for higher education as Idaho experiences heavy turnover in its university system and all across state government.
