Sherrie Settle, associate vice chancellor for sponsored programs and regulatory compliance, has taken the reins as ERA project manager, in preparation for Rick Liston’s upcoming retirement.

Settle has been a key part of the ERA project since the RFP phase, and Liston says she’s the ideal candidate to take over the role of project manager.

“You reach a certain point in projects like these when it makes perfect sense to have someone with more subject matter expertise as project manager,” Liston says. “And Sherrie is the perfect person for that.”
