RALEIGH, N.C. — University of North Carolina-system President Molly Broad said North Carolina State University will have an interim leader before graduation next month.

Chancellor Marye Anne Fox is leaving N.C. State to become the chancellor of The University of California at San Diego.

As far as a permanent replacement, Broad said the search will begin before the end of the semester and go through the summer.

Broad said she hopes to name a new chancellor early next year.
