Monterey Peninsula selects WSU alum to be new president

PULLMAN, Wash. – As the new president of Monterey Peninsula College, Walter Tribley, a Washington State University alumnus, is focused on the students, funding and wiring-in the campus.
Tribley graduated from WSU in 1998 with a doctorate in biochemistry and biophysics.  Before accepting the position in Monterey, he was the Vice President of Instruction of Wenatchee Valley College and chief administrative officer of the WVC-Omak campus.
Funding is a topic former president Doug Garrison emphasized and one Tribley intends to continue addressing.
