The Kuali Foundation announced that Jennifer Foutty has been selected as the Foundation's first Executive Director. This is an important step for the Kuali community. Up to this point any strategic planning, or executioin of specific initiatives has been undertaken by individual board members or other community leaders during "spare time." A lot has been accomplished this way already, but this step represents a whole new phase of evolution for the community.

I don't know Jennifer very well but I have worked extensively with most of the search committee and trust their judgement. I'm very excited for the community and look forward to working with Jennifer in this next phase of the Kuali community.
