Thomas Richards, executive chairman of CDW, will serve as the board of trustees chairperson-elect.
At the summer board of trustees meeting Friday morning, the board approved nominations for a chairperson-elect as well as five new trustees.
The governance and nominating committee had voted in favor of the nominees at a June 10 meeting.
Board Chairperson Eva Tansky Blum, a former PNC executive and the first woman to hold the role, will serve a special one-year extension to her four-year tenure as board chairperson. Thomas Richards, executive chairman of CDW, a technology solutions company, will serve as chairperson-elect to learn the ropes. He will officially take over as the new chairperson of Pitt’s board in June 2020. Richards was first elected to the board of trustees in 2011 and has served on a variety of committees, including the audit and governance, athletics and nominating committees, as well as the risk and compliance committee, which he chaired from 2013 to 2018.
Douglas Browning, Louis Cestello, David Chavern, Deborah Gillotti, Michael Wells and G. Nicholas Beckwith III were re-elected to new four-year terms on the board.
