Last October, Fairmont State University’s Board of Governors unanimously approved Strategic Vision 2025-2035, outlining a bold roadmap for the university’s next decade. Now, with the semester underway, the planning process is moving into the next phase: developing implementation plans.
Fairmont State University Board of Governors met on Wednesday, February 26 to consider and vote on the renewal or modification to President Mike Davis’ contract and to consider and vote on hiring a consultant firm to assist with a presidential assessment. Davis’s current contract will expire on June 30.
Fairmont State University’s ongoing and future initiatives to address college access, workforce needs, and strengthen West Virginia’s economy were the main highlights of the Feb. 19 Board of Governors meeting.
As 2024 was coming to an end, then Governor Jim Justice appointed Fairmont State alumnus John “JD” DeVaul to the University's Board of Governors. DeVaul replaces Kevin Rogers, and his term will expire June 2026.
