CT business leaders join Lamont to interview UConn president candidate

Gov. Ned Lamont convened Monday what could be the last step before trustees formally select the next president of the University of Connecticut: An opportunity for the leading candidate to talk privately with Lamont and a half-dozen business leaders about the governor’s desire for UConn to play a greater role helping to drive economic growth. The meeting at the Executive Residence was the governor’s second with the candidate, who has not been publicly identified by the governor’s office or a university search committee. UConn’s trustees began the search after Susan Herbst announced May 21 that she intended to step down this summer after eight years as the university’s 15th president.
