James T. Harris III, president of Widener University in Chester for the last 13 years, will leave at the end of July to become president of the University of San Diego, effective Aug. 1. “This decision to leave Widener has not been easy," Harris said in a statement. "I love Widener, and I have been honored to work side by side with such capable and dedicated colleagues on the faculty and staff. … I have particularly enjoyed my annual alternative spring break trips with students to developing nations and the opportunity to see them develop their global citizenship skills.”
