Dr. Jeffery Gold was chosen Wednesday by the University of Nebraska Board of Regents as its priority candidate to become the system’s ninth president.
Gold is chancellor of the University of Nebraska Medical Center and for a time was also the leader of the University of Nebraska at Omaha.
Gold was named UNMC chancellor in 2014, replacing longtime Chancellor Harold Maurer, and oversees a campus with seven colleges, a faculty and staff of roughly 7,000, and about 4,300 students – a number that has grown continually during his tenure.
