Bellamkonda announced that Brown will serve a two-year term as interim executive vice president and provost, pending approval by The Ohio State University Board of Trustees.

Before that, he served as director of the then-Glenn School. In June 2025, Brown was named senior vice provost for academic affairs in the Office of Academic Affairs, where he served as deputy to the provost and worked with academic leaders on strategy related to student academic success and outcomes.“As President Bellamkonda has said, Ohio State is an academic powerhouse, and our focus on teaching, research, creative expression and community engagement is critical to improving the lives of Ohioans and families around the world,” Brown said. “I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to advance that important mission and continue the university’s momentum related to academic excellence.” As interim provost, Brown will lead programs and initiatives in the Office of Academic Affairs. The role includes oversight of deans of all Ohio State colleges, regional campuses and University Libraries, as well as the Enterprise for Research, Innovation and Knowledge. “We are pleased to be able to further elevate Dr. Brown’s portfolio and responsibilities at Ohio State,” Bellamkonda said. “He brings stores of knowledge about our academic mission and its many programs, as well as a deep understanding of and appreciation for the shared governance process with which we operate. “Most of all, Dr. Brown is a dedicated public servant. Like his mentor and friend, the late Senator John Glenn, he has committed himself to the betterment of society through the act and, importantly, teaching of public service.”The university highlighted Brown’s service in multiple leadership roles over the past five years, including co-chair of the academic transition task force during the COVID-19 pandemic, executive dean of the professional colleges, senior advisor to the provost, and interim dean of Fisher College of Business, in addition to serving as Glenn College dean.Authorities have issued an Endangered Child Alert for a 16-year-old girl missing from Montgomery County, with the search extending into several surrounding SoutA man accused of killing his wife pleaded not guilty Monday, and his bond remained at $1.5 million.BLENDON TOWNSHIP, Ohio — Detectives are working to identify a person found dead in Big Walnut Creek on Saturday afternoon, according to Blendon Township PoliceThe fiscal officer has been removed from office after a judge found he violated state law by attempting to invest public funds in gold coins.
