The University of Guyana is hiring a heavyweight diplomat to run the show because the Council selected Ronald Sanders to replace John Edward Greene as chancellor. The Office of the President verified that this Antigua and Barbuda ambassador will assume the top spot following a selection process required under the school charter.
Sanders currently represents his nation in Washington and at the Organization of American States. He previously held academic roles at Oxford and the University of Toronto while stacking up honorary doctorates.
Local authorities believe his arrival matches their push to dump cash into human capital. Administration bigwigs hope this appointment helps the college gain international clout while the economy shifts toward knowledge-based industries.
