Warwick Arden can remove "interim" from his title.
He's now N.C. State's provost, getting the job for good after serving as interim provost since May of last year.
He'll also hold the title of executive vice chancellor. The appointment was made Friday. His salary will be $315,000.
The provost is the university's chief academic officer, overseeing a broad spectrum of academic and student affairs.
Arden, 53, was previously dean of NCSU's College of Veterinary Medicine.

Same old same old for NCSU
Fri, 12/03/2010 - 20:14 — festusNCSU has consistently failed to hire from outside, or hire the most interesting candidate for Provost. Linda Brady was the obvious best candidate last time, and so they cancelled the search and brought in a friend of the Chancellor. And we all know how that worked out. Now they turn down a great candidate from Syracuse for a familiar face. This institution needs to lose its inferiority complex and quit hiring these insider hacks.
