NYU names Johns Hopkins Deputy AD Jake Olkkola as its next AD, starting June 10. Senior VP for University Life Jason Pina: "Throughout this process, it became evident that Jake brings a demonstrated ability to manage a complex enterprise; an understanding of the integral relationship between athletic and academic excellence within a Division III program. He has a keen awareness of the opportunities and challenges presented by NYU's unique location in an urban environment and its impact upon our students' experience of sport and, above all, an approach to leadership grounded in integrity and compassion." AGB Search assisted with the process. (link)
