Kris Kolluri of West Windsor has been tapped to oversee operations of the newly formed Rutgers-Camden Rowan University Board of Governors. A former cabinet member during the Corzine administration, Kolluri was named chief executive officer on May 30 during the joint board’s second official meeting. He begins his new post on July 1.
Kolluri, 45, previously served as commissioner of the New Jersey Department of Transportation in 2006 and later oversaw the New Jersey Schools Development Authority in 2008.
“This is a start-up and there is a lot of excitement in the challenge of the unknown and un-met opportunities, but I know the board is fully committed and I’m excited, frankly I’m honored, to be a part of this,” Kolluri said in the India West News.
