This spring, UNT appointed Bob Brown ('80, '90 M.B.A.), certified public accountant, as vice president for finance and administration.

Brown, who brings a wealth of expertise and executive leadership experience to his new position, served as vice president for business and administration at Texas A&M-Commerce before joining UNT in May.
