University of Alabama and Huntsfields about to drop a big update, naming their 11th president next week. Current leader Dr. Charles Carr announced his retirement back on October 13, 2025, planning to step down in May 20, 26 after five solid years at the helm. The University of Alabama System Board of Trustees called a special meeting for next Wednesday at 4 p.m., right on campus at Alton Kirchlan, courtyard behind the Student Services Building. Everyone's invited, with parking in the K-1 lot out front, or the intermodal spot on John Wright Drive. If rain hits, they shift inside to the Charger Student Union. Cars run boosted research and development cash flow, locked in ties with Huntsfield businesses and alumni, and lifted academic results across the board. He gets two more commencement nods, fall 2025 and spring 2026, before passing the torch eyes on who steps up next. That wraps Birmingham News today. Brought to you with AI,
