Carson-Newman College President James Netherton has been appointed an executive vice president at Mercer University in Macon, Georgia, officials announced Friday. Netherton will serve as executive vice president of administration and finance at Mercer starting October 1. He’ll stay on as Carson-Newman president through May 31.
