UA Chancellor Joe Steinmetz resigned from his position after five and a half years in an email sent to faculty, staff and students Thursday evening. His resignation is effective Friday.
In his letter to the university community, Steinmetz said he found his career in higher education to be fulfilling, but after 38 years in the field, he needed âto do whatâs best for my familyâ while making way for others.
âFor the past 38 years, higher education has been not only my vocation, but my absolute commitment,â Steinmetz wrote. âMy wife Sandy is the reason I get up in the morning, but the promise of teaching and learning, research and discovery, and outreach and engagement has kept me returning to the office day after day, year after year â steadfast in my belief of the power of higher education to improve lives.â
