TCU’s Chancellor Boschini to leave job in June 2025. University announces transition plan
TCU has set a graduation date for Chancellor Victor Boschini.
Boschini, who has served as chancellor since 2004, will hand over the reins to university President Daniel Pullin on June 1, 2025. Pullin will become the 11th chancellor in the university’s 151-year history.
“It is almost impossible to find an aspect of campus that has not been positively impacted by Chancellor Boschini’s leadership, vision and heart,” TCU Board of Trustees Chair Kit Moncrief said in a university press release.
Moncrief credited Boschini with guiding TCU’s emergence as a one of the best universities in the country, saying the university community is indebted to his transformative impact.
“We are committed to building upon his legacy to ensure an even greater TCU for the future,” Moncrief said.
The university needs an incredible leader to guide its growth, academic excellence and impact, Boschini said in the press release, adding that Pullin is the right man for the job.
“He is an inspiring leader with a big vision and his unbounded energy makes him a force of nature,” Boschini said.
Pullin, who joined TCU as dean of the Neeley School of Business in 2019, was instrumental in shaping the university’s strategic plan focused on student growth, athletic success, research scholarships, and and community engagement, according to the press release.
He said it’s been an honor to work beside Boschini. He credited the outgoing chancellor’s “joyful, kind and respectful brand of leadership” for the university’s success.
“As TCU grows into this next frontier, I’m indebted to what Victor has built and inspired and by what I know is possible for this great university,” Pullin said.
The pair will continue to work together in the spring semester before Pullin takes over in June. Boschini will stay on in an emeritus role to advise on fundraising and enrollment, according to the press release.
