Houston Chronicle: TSU regents pick Rudley as new president
Texas Southern University all but ended a 19-month search for a new president Friday, turning to a familiar face and known problem solver to rehabilitate the proud but chronically troubled school.
Regents voted 9-0 to name John Rudley, the University of Houston’s interim president, as the sole finalist for the top job at Texas’ largest historically black university. State law requires the governing board to wait 21 days before finalizing the appointment.
