TERRE HAUTE —
Greg Goode is returning to Indiana State University as its executive director for governmental relations, ISU President Dan Bradley announced today.
A former Terre Haute resident and ISU graduate, Goode held a similar position at Indiana State from 2001 to 2007. He is returning to Indiana from Kenmore, Wash., where he serves as chief of staff and director of the Center for Health Policy and Leadership at Bastyr University.
During his previous tenure at Indiana State, Goode was instrumental in securing approval for several major projects including the renovation of University Hall to house ISU’s Bayh College of Education, acquisition of the Terre Haute Federal Building to house the Scott College of Business, Cherry Street Multi-Modal Transportation Facility and the Terre Haute Innovation Alliance.
“Greg brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to this position that will be extremely valuable to Indiana State and will enable him to hit the ground running as we enter the next biennial budget process. I look forward to working with him and welcome Greg and his family back to Terre Haute,” said President Bradley.
Goode said he is excited and grateful for the opportunity to return to his alma mater.
“My life has been greatly impacted by Indiana State University as I personally experienced many wonderful opportunities of personal and intellectual growth while I was there as a student and employee,” he said. “I look forward to assisting President Bradley with the fulfillment of the university’s vision and working with leaders at the local, state and federal levels to advance Indiana State’s mission. My family and I are equally excited to return to the Wabash Valley, which has been and always will be home for us.”
He will begin his new duties at Indiana State on July 16.
