PITTSBURG, Kan. — On May 1, 2009, then Pittsburg State University Provost Dr. Steve Scott was waiting in a hotel room in Topeka for a call that would change his life.
“I sat in a hotel room after visiting with the Board of Regents waiting for them to call me, to let me know if I was going to be the president,” Scott says. “I had a pair of blue jeans on and was ready to load the car and go home.”
Then the phone rang he said, and before he knew it he was in a suit in downtown Topeka being introduced as Pittsburg State University’s newest president.
