The Lincoln University of Missouri Board of Curators has selected the 21st president of the university.

Interim President Dr. John Moseley will have his interim title removed and be named the university's next president.

Moseley has nearly 20 years of higher education experience, including 13 years at Historically Black College or University (HBCU) campuses. During his interim tenure, he has led key initiatives to improve Lincoln University’s enrollment through new, data-driven admissions strategies and the restructuring of scholarship programs.

“I am humbled to serve the students, faculty and alumni of Lincoln University in this role,” said Moseley in a release. “This University has always helped students achieve their dreams. I am grateful to be part of a team working together to accomplish that aim, providing financial, academic and social resources. The need for what Lincoln University provides has never been more important and we will continue to address every challenge to better serve our students and the community.”  

According to Lincoln University Board of Curators President Victor Pasley, Moseley has also initiated relationships with new key educational and scholarship partners for the University. He has cultivated and strengthened relationships between the University and alumni, faculty, staff, students, state and federal partners. 

“Dr. Moseley has proven his leadership and value to the University during the past nine months of his interim presidency,” said Pasley in a release. “Lincoln is at a pivotal juncture in its history, and Dr. Moseley’s leadership has already energized our campus, fundraising and key partnerships that will strengthen and fuel Lincoln’s future.”
