Jerry Beck to step down as CSI president

Jerry Beck will resign July 1 as president of the College of Southern Idaho, the Twin Falls Times-News reports, citing health problems; Beck has been with the college for 38 years and became president in 2005. The CSI board named Curtis Eaton, former executive director of the CSI Foundation, as interim president, but Eaton won’t be a candidate for the permanent position. The board is planning a national search for a new president. Beck will take a six-month sabbatical and then formally retire Dec. 31, the Times-News reported; you can read their full report here.
