Being named chancellor of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee has been \u201ca rush,\u201d said Mark Mone.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have to tell you, it hasn\u2019t sunk in,\u201d he said Monday, soon after the University of Wisconsin System Board of Regents announced his appointment.<\/p>\n

Mone, 55, has served as interim chancellor since May, succeeding Michael Lovell, who became president of Marquette University. Mone thanked the faculty, students, alumni and others who supported him during the interim period and said he was overwhelmed by the offers of help that began arriving in his inbox almost immediately after his position was made permanent.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf that\u2019s any indication of what I have to look forward to, it\u2019s going to be a great time ahead,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

As chancellor, his top priorities will be students, research and community engagement.<\/p>\n

He hopes to increase students\u2019 educational opportunities and improve their quality of life. One way of doing this will be regular meetings with Student Association leaders. Another will be having open forums where students can express concerns about everything from parking to academic credit for work experience.<\/p>\n

Mone won\u2019t personally solve all those problems, but he can give students \u201ca mechanism and a voice\u201d that gets their needs met.<\/p>\n

UWM has already made significant contributions to the region, and nation, with research, but \u201cwe have more that we can do, and we need to support that,\u201d Mone said.<\/p>\n

Pointing to Boston and Austin, Texas, as cities were university research has fueled the local economy, Mone said UWM offers similar promise to southeastern Wisconsin. Related to that, he would like to see the university expand its partnerships with area businesses and community organizations.<\/p>\n

Mone has taught at the Lubar School of Business since 1989 and served as its associate dean for executive education and business engagement from 1997 to 2013. For the past two years, he has been the chancellor\u2019s designee for strategic planning and campus climate, spearheading creation of the university\u2019s new strategic plan.<\/p>\n

Many ideas discussed as part of that process have been on hold while the search was done for a new chancellor, but now he said, \u201cwe can fast forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mone earned his doctorate in management from Washington State University, his master\u2019s degree in business administration from Idaho State University, and his bachelor\u2019s degree from Central Washington University. He is married with two children \u2013 one a senior at UWM.<\/p>\n

Mone said he never envisioned himself as chancellor when he came to UWM 25 years ago, but he is \u201cthrilled,\u201d \u201ctotally excited\u201d and \u201cover the top with joy at being able to lead this great institution.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked what he would consider UWM\u2019s No. 1 asset, he said without hesitation that it was the faculty, staff and students.<\/p>\n

\u201cI go to alumni events, whether it\u2019s locally in Waukesha or in Racine, or I go to Washington, D.C., or I\u2019m here in Milwaukee, and every single time, people line up to tell me the difference that this campus has made,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd it comes back to the quality of the people, and how much they are dedicated and care.\u201d
