Dooley prepares to say goodbye to southern Rhode Island
KINGSTON â The Board of Trustees for the University of Rhode Island has officially named President David M. Dooleyâs replacement, though heâll still sit at the helm for another few months.Â
Last week, the board announced the selection of Professor Marc B. Parlange, provost and senior vice president of Monash University in Australia, as the universityâs next president. In August, heâll be taking the reins from Dooley â who for more than a decade has been a major driving force of development and transformation in Kingston.Â
âI just want to say, on a personal note, Iâve really enjoyed living here amongst all of you,â Dooley told members of the South Kingstown Town Council on Monday. âThe Town of South Kingstown has been a great place for us, as a family. Lynn and I have enjoyed a lot of what South County, and particularly South Kingstown, has to offer.âÂ
