The University of Toledo’s 19th president, James Holloway, was selected Thursday to “restore the greatness” of the university and build upon research growth amid declining enrollment.

Mr. Holloway will take the helm July 15, leaving his position as provost and executive vice president for academic affairs at the University of New Mexico, a post he has held since July, 2019. UNM is that state’s largest university with 23,228 students at its Albuquerque campus.
