‘I was told I was going to retire’: Longtime leader UND Center for Innovation departs after shake-up, tensions - Andrew Haffner, Forum New

Bruce Gjovig, former leader of the entrepreneurship-focused University of North Dakota Center for Innovation, says his recent retirement from the organization wasn’t entirely by choice. “I was told I was going to retire,” Gjovig said. Gjovig said the direction came from UND, but he was informed by members of the board of the center’s foundation. In mid-March, three members of the governing board of that autonomous organization flew to Grand Forks to tell Gjovig it was time for a change. http://bismarcktribune.com/news/state-and-regional/i-was-told-i-was-going-to-retire-longtime-leader/article_738499c8-d669-5a79-87ad-83790bb33bf5.html
