PLAINFIELD, Vt. (AP) — Vermont's Goddard College has appointed an interim president.

The board of trustees voted unanimously to approve the hiring of Robert Kenny, who starts work on April 30.

Kenny, a native Vermonter, returns to Goddard after serving as vice president of finance and administration at Georgian Court University in Lakewood, N.J.

Kenny had overseen finance and administration as well as academic affairs while at Goddard from 2008 to 2011. Before that, he served in administrative roles and as a professor of business at St. Michael's College.

He succeeds Barbara Vacarr, who stepped down at the end of last year to focus on family issues.
