Jay Jones Named Interim UAM Chancellor

January 7th, 2015 by

Jay JonesJay Jones, vice chancellor for finance and administration at the University of Arkansas at Monticello, has been named UAM’s interim chancellor by UA System President Dr. Donald Bobbitt.

Jones will serve in the position until a new chancellor is selected to replace Dr. Jack Lassiter, who retired January 5.
“In looking forward to the future and to the leadership needs of the University of Arkansas at Monticello, effective January 6, I have asked Jay Jones toserve as interim chancellor,” said Dr. Bobbitt. “Jay has graciously agreed to serve until a new chancellor is named and in place, and he will be very helpful in guiding us through the upcoming legislative session.”
Jones has served as UAM’s chief financial officer since 2006. Prior to joining the UAM administration, he spent five years as vice president for finance at Mid-America Baptist Theological Seminary in Memphis, Tenn., and also served 10 years as vice chancellor for finance at Phillips Community College of the University of Arkansas.
“Today marks the beginning of a transition for UAM,” Jones said. “As Dr. Lassiter begins his retirement, the search for his replacement is ongoing. In addition to fulfilling the routine day-to-day duties of the chancellor, the major responsibilities of my temporary appointment as interim chancellor will include providing leadership in legislative matters involving UAM during the 2015 session and facilitating the development of the FY2016 budget. Also, my plan for this interim period is to guide the University in action directed by existing strategic plans. It will not be my goal to enact significant, new initiatives or to effect major changes in the institution’s direction during this time. I am thankful for the opportunity to serve UAM during the coming months and appreciate the support and encouragement that I have already received.”
