University of Louisiana-Monroe President Jim Cofer was named president of Missouri State University Friday afternoon.

President of ULM since 2002, Cofer's last day on the job here is July 30. He takes over at Missouri State Aug. 1.

In a prepared statement released by ULM Friday afternoon, Cofer said, "Deborah (Cofer's wife) and I will forever treasure our work and our lives spent at ULM. The support of our university family and greater community paved the way for incredible progress at this institution. Thank you for this extraordinary journey; it will always remain with us as we continue our commitment to higher education."

Randy Moffett, president of the University of Louisiana System, of which ULM belongs, praised Cofer for his work at ULM.

"ULM has been fortunate to have Dr. Cofer's leadership for the last eight years, as the university has flourished with Jim and Deborah. We wish them much success at Missouri State University," Moffett said, according to the prepared statement released by ULM.
