Vice-Chancellor John McCardell has announced that E. Douglass (Doug) Williams was elected as treasurer of the University of the South by the board of regents at its recent meeting.
Williams is the Frank W. Wilson Professor of Economics at the University and was appointed interim treasurer last year. As treasurer, Williams serves as chief financial officer of the University and as an officer of the corporation.
“For the past 14 months, Doug has served capably as interim treasurer, and I am delighted that the board accepted my recommendation,” said McCardell.
“Doug’s leadership of our financial offices during a period of both physical and operational transition has been steady and sure.”
Williams is a member of the University’s class of 1981 and has been a member of the Sewanee faculty since 1999.
He has served as chair of the economics department and as a member of the board of the Babson Center for Global Commerce. Before returning to Sewanee, he taught at Carleton College and was city economist in Milwaukee, Wis.
