DePaul University has named A. Gabriel Esteban as the first lay president in its 119-year history, a break with tradition that follows Loyola University Chicago's move and spotlights again the budgetary and fundraising demands of academic leadership.
Esteban comes from being president of Seton Hall University, a job he's had at the South Orange, N.J., school since 2011.
DePaul, the nation's largest Catholic university, with 23,100 students, will add to the share of Catholic colleges and universities--more than 70 percent--headed by lay presidents. Last May, Loyola chose Jo Ann Rooney, as its first lay president.
DePaul finally got lay-ed. Wave of the future. Not enough qualified priests.
Maybe he'll fire JLP...
