New president and vice-chancellor begins role at TRU
KAMLOOPS — Thompson Rivers University’s new president stepped into his new role today, replacing Dr. Alan Shaver, who retired from the position in September.
Dr. Brett Fairbairn comes to the university from the University of Saskatchewan.
He has 32 years of experience as a faculty member and administrator, but he intends to impart his vision for the university only after he spends some time listening to what the needs are.
