WIT president’s term to end after board decision
A meeting of the WIT governing body yesterday was scheduled to ratify a second term for Mr Byrne, whose contract as head of the college for 10 years ends today, after he was recommended for reappointment from an earlier selection process.
However, after several hours discussing the issue, the board’s chairman Dr Donie Ormonde said last night that it was decided not to adopt the recommendation of the selection board. He said it was decided to broaden the search and selection process because of the strategic nature of the appointment.
