Interim president hopes to help SCSU find path forward
MPR — Larry Dietz spent 50 years as a higher education administrator, most recently as president of Illinois State University, before retiring in 2021.
It was the opportunity to help another, albeit smaller, Midwestern institution facing significant challenges that lured him out of retirement. Dietz, who started last week as interim president of St. Cloud State University, said he wasn’t looking for a long-term gig, but missed being involved in higher education.
